Hey guys any recommendations for the best treatment for marine itch? I can see small white spots on my clownfish and tang. I am guessing it's marine itch. Any suggestions would be really helpful.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!
There is not a good way to treat marine ich (Cryptocaryon) in a display tank with invertebrates. In tanks with just fish, you can use copper (as mentioned) or low salinity.
