Ich Problem

[kkp]

Hi everyone!!!

I recently bought a Regal tang and 2 (wild) cleaner Goby's.

Once I introduced them into my tank, I realized white spots on all fish. I've had 4 other fish in the tank with no ich problems.

I immediately took them out of the tank and started to Quarantine (I SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS FIRST).

I waited 2 weeks in quarantine and they had no more white spots.

A DAY AFTER I INTRODUCED THEM BACK INTO MY DISPLAY TANK, THEYRE WORSE THAN BEFORE.

Does this mean my DT has Ich???? How do i remove Ich from my Display tank? The other fish show 0 signs of ich. Its only the Regal and Goby's.

What are the next steps? Do i remove all fish from my DT although the others dont show signs of Ich?
