Ich?

[KingJuleigh]

I had my male clown die 2 days ago and now my female clown has little white spots on her tail, well when I turn off the lights and turn on the blue lights it’s shows she is covered in white spots, she is looking thin and swimming weird but is eating, I plan on going to the pet store in the morning for ich treatment, no other fish shows signs or symptoms, what are the odds Ill lose this clown too?

I also have coral in my tank so am I able to use ich medications? My hospital tank isn’t stable enough to be used

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to use any effective ich medications (namely copper) in a tank with coral. If you have some form of ceramic media or a sponge filter in your hospital tank, you can add a bottle of biopspira to help stabilize it. You may also want to post pictures if possible so that the experts can tell you exactly what’s in your tank. If it’s velvet, you’ll need to act fast.
