Ok so I’m new to saltwater aquariums n I just ran into a major ich problem. Do I need to treat the fish in the infected tank first and then move them to quarantine ? Or move them and treat them in quarantine? Also do I need to remove all the sand from the currant tank already set up ?
 
Welcome to R2R!

You have come to the right spot for answers. Good luck!

Welcome :) The infected fish should be treated in a separate qt tank if possible & the display tank should go fallow for 60 days some say 72. You will find great disease treatment information here in the search column as well. Best of luck
 
Quarantine and allow the display tank to remain empty for at least 6-8 weeks. Can you post pics under white lights to confirm it is Ich? Velvet/oodinum, brooklynella and lymphocystis are similar
