Ich/velvet are most visible on the fins of fish. I can't really see anything. If your lights let you could you take a picture with white lights on? It will make it a lot more clear

It’s ich or velvet. I did more research on it and it looks similar. It got on my valentini puffer. How would I go about saving them. I have no quarantine tank sadly. I give all my fish a fw bath and it’s worked until now. And I have two Kenya trees and I don’t know how to treat. Any ideas?

Treating with copper is the best way. 10 gallon tanks with a filter and heater will run you about 40-60 dollars at Petco. You're going to want to leave your dt fallow for 76 days.
Otherwise you can remove all your sand, rock, and coral and put it in a five gallon bucket and treat your dt with copper that way and once the treatment is done (I do a 4 week treatment of copper) you can add your sand, rock, and coral back after 76 days

Wow. I’m a little new to reef tanks. Couldnt I just put coral in a different tank then treat my tank with copper? I have a nano reef I could just put my corals in there. There’s no fish in it
