What do I do?

[itchy]

I posted this in the disease forum as well but here goes. I have noticed that a couple of my fish now have ich. Not sure what is going on because there is nothing in the tank that is new that could have caused the outbreak. Anyway I have a few new corals in my tank so therefore I can not do hypo in the display tank. I have a 30 gallon I can set up as a QT tank but if I move my fish it will be a lot of fish in a 30 gallon tank and I am affraid it will cause more problems. If I move the Corals and some LR to the QT wouldn't that be better? Then all I need to do is figure out what to do about lighting? Any suggestions? I am sick over this just sick :scared: . Everything has been great for so long and the Bam hell breaks loose. I appreciate any thoughts or advice as I have got to do something quick.

if you can move them to the QT that would surely be better.. just the fish.. though if you think this would be a problem there are some products out there that treats ich and claims to be completely reef safe. Look into Kick-Ich by ruby reef I believe if you dont wanna do a QT.... but doing the QT would surely be better!

well here is the outcome...I caught the tang,butterfly and blennie and moved them as they were showing signs of ICH. I am watching my clowns to see if they start to show any signs. Let me tell ya...this was not easy.

I had to move the LR out of the tank in order to catch these little Bast**ds. I am just affraid of throwing myself into a cycle in the display tank because of all of this, meaning movement of the rock and removing about 12 gallons of water to put into the QT.

I did not move all of the fish because I am affraid they will not all do well in the 30 gallon. I will just watch and see.
