Clown sick
Small clown is looking sick - has some white on him, but I don't think it's ICH, looks more like dusting from sand. Fins are looking frayed and he is swimming up against the back corner. He wouldn't eat too
The rest of fish and inverts all look okay. I purchased the established reef tank and we set it up here 3 weeks ago. He looked okay until yesterday, when I did a 25% water change because of high Nitrates - coincidence? Should I remove him in case he infects anyone else, or see if he recovers? Thanks,

I've had to take him out DT. he was at bottom nearly sea and the others were starting to pull him around.
He has lost most his colour and on last legs (okay fins). He is in bucket, but don't look good. Should I put pump in bucket with heater and get some treatment - if so what? or, just let him go peacefully. Still 1/2" long white stuff attached to one of the other clowns, but he looks healthy. Any advice appreciated? Tks

At 2 hours from death, there is nothing to do, sorry, it is way to late.

Your fish probably had brooklynella or marine velvet and yes the others will probably follow and get sick too so be prepaired. For treatment, it is hard to tell without a photo and the treatment is very different if it is velvet or brook, so idendification is important before treating with anything.
