For those of you that have had this.. Is this the way it usually happens? If MV can kill so fast, it doesn't make sense to me that it would take 5-6 weeks AFTER introducing it into your tank for the outbreak to occur.

Brad I feel your pain. I am also going through velvet & cloudy eye in my tank. I added 2 fish that I bought on boxing day (haven't seen either of them since) and within a few days my fish started getting sick and in the past month I have lost at least 50 fish and counting.
My death list off the top of my head so far:
clowns x4
firefish
pencil wrasse
yellow coris wrasse
leopard wrasse x 2
6 line wrasse x 2
chromis x 12
asfer angel
majestic angel
powder blue tang
chevron tang
regal tang
royal gramma x 2
mandarins x 2
pipefish
damsel
bicolor blenny
naso tang
sailfin tang
pyramid butterflies x 2
+ a bunch more I can't think of right now. I had over 80 fish in my system and now I don't.

Greg, that's really crappy to hear! I've only lost 2 and I hope that's it! I've got mine in a treatment tank with some kind of med my LFS guy recommended. Are you able to get fish out at all??

Greg, this is truly tragic! Your fish were awesome, what a loss as I know you've had some of them a long time.
