stringy stuff and cloudy eyes

[rolltide]

My tank had been doing wonderfully till a week ago. I have had a bicolor blenny, tomato clown and purple tang since September. Last week I noticed some very, very small worm like creatures on the glass. Then I noticed my fish had spots on them and some white stringy stuff on them and there eyes were cloudy. The bicolor and tang have passed and I don't know if I can save the Tomato. What is this stuff and how can I prvent it. Could it have come on anemone I got a couple of weeks ago?

The anemone is not likely the problem. Are the spots like white salt-like dots covering the body? Give us some more details about what this looks like, and how your fish are behaving? Is the clown scatching, darting about erratically, gasping, etc.?

Unfortunately the clown did die but before he did he was hiding behind a rock. I don't think he was scratching rather than just kinda laying there waiting to die. Today the tank looks nice and clear and the little worm like things on the glass seem to be gone. I gave the water a treatment of kick-ich. The anemone, shrimp, sally and hermit seem to be doing fine and were not affected by anything.
