My tang and butterfly get ick occasionally when I add a new fish or stress them out by moving things around in the tank a lot. But if they continue to eat well and you don't stress them out further they get over it on their own. Just like the common cold that Coleus describes. I've had the tang for 5 years and the butterfly for 3.

That wrasse grows pretty large for a 75gal which could certainly stress it and make it more susceptible to ick.
