So confused..ich or not??? Help

[Coralgurl]

I too think the clowns were really sick. My blenny seemed to be doing a bit better for a few days last week, then noticed that he was again sitting high on the rocks beside one of the power heads, think to try to get more oxygen. He died this morning. I think he had ich really bad as well, some mornings he was completely white around mouth and gills, would clear during the day then be bad again next day.

I added an airstone yesterday to the qt and noticed my cardinals in a corner barely breathing and my chromis was swimming at an accelerated pace, couldn't figure out what was going on, turned the airstone off, cardinals started to swim and chromis settled down. No more airstone.

My ammonia is still close to .25, ph is 8.1, i have dropped the temp down, thermonitor doesn't show settings so have to check on the side of the tank in a bit, was at 78.

Fish ate a bit this morning, haven't done a water change yet as I can't get the dosing right in my water change bucket and don't want to add to tank until I get it.

So I'm down to 4 fish. I can see see spots on the angel, so keep on going.

I have no plans to put the fish back until they are clear and 8 weeks have
passed. I am not going thru this again!!
