I have a clown fish that has a white bump. it looks like a piece of coral. Maybe he brushed up against the coral and got a piece stuck in his scales! Is this possible? If so can I catch him in the net and take tweezers and take it out? I am VERY new to this. I also have had ich for 2 weeks. My longnose butterfly brought it into the tank and died on Monday. My powder blue tang also has it but it is getting better. I treated my tank 85 gallons with ich cure for 7 days and it did nothing, now I am treating it with copper since the 19th and it is looking better. i take a copper test everyday and it has been at .15, I also did a 20% water change on the 19th, my ammonia is .25 (that was after I added the copper) ph.7.8, nitrate 0ppm, and salt 1.014. temp 80 degrees. I do not have a hospital tank, I am going to set one up after this, won't that also take 6 weeks to cycle? My other fish are a squirrel, yellow tang, horseshoe crab, a large piece of coral, I have a filter off the back of the tank, and Amiracle system with the blue bioballs under the base.The owner of the pet store is very helpful, but I feel like a pest constantly asking questions, everyday it's something new. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
