I doubt it would be able to eliminate ich from your tank.
Also taking the tang out to treat wouldn't solve your problem either.
Part of ich life cycle is an off the fish, So you take the fish out cure him of ich, put him back in the tank and hes got ich again.
Just because you cant see ich doesn't mean its not there I'm afraid.
Basically your option's are QT and treat all your fish for over a month.
Or live with the fact that you have Ich in your tank and try to solve what the tangs issue is.

Good points. The bizarre thing is, is that the tang doesn't seem to have any issues. She got white spots on her after we added a clown tang to our tank. The clown tang picked on her for a little bit for the first few days, after that they have been fine with each other. That was six months ago and my Lavender tang still has spots on her. We've feed garlic and selcon with mysis which seemed to help a bit but didn't get rid of the spots. None of the other fish have spots on them and the lavender acts like nothing is wrong with her. The white spots look like ich but maybe they're not?
I guess I was hoping that if something could pick off the white spots (can't keep a cleaner shrimp because my angels will eat it) my Lavender would now be healthy/less stressed enough to keep the spots from coming back. I believe the white spots annoy me more then they annoy her
