Possible ich??

[kuatto]

I noticed what looks like ich on my rabbit fish(small white dots on fins and side).he is not scratching or breathing hard,active and eats well.So far he is the only one with the spots(might have just started)so i want to stop this in its tracks,but i dont have a qt tank set up.The tank has a few softies and some snails,so treating the tank with ick meds are out of the question(or is it?)I've been reading about others using garlic if started early with good results,what do you all think?
I'm going to do a partial water change and test everything(if this is ich,its got me puzzled on how it started)Also thought of a fresh water dip,but dont want to stress him out netting him,so i thought about the garlic.
