I would just clean your filters get them all good. Do a water change and feed them a lot of nori.
You might stress him out by putting him in qt.
Fish can fight off ich as long as they are healthy and have a good environment.
At least that's my experience.

There is no point puling the tang out and treating him unless you treat all the fish at the same time and leave your display tank fishless for 8 weeks.

Sounds good.

Did a water change. Everyone else is looking great.

He's just been eating the algae in my tank (of which there is alot.) I have nori, but haven't feed it to him until today. I put some near him, but he showed no interest in it. I don't know if it's because he doesn't know what it is, or because of the ick.

Some tangs are picky on the color of the nori.
But also if they aren't used to it give him time.

Good to know. I'll be patient. He was having a hard time staying upright before the lights went off... He also was not going to let the cleaner shrimp anywhere near him.


Any relation to Kevin Joly from your area?

any chance hes been picked on or attacked , more work and less time at home means less feedings and interaction which can trigger aggression and that could stress the tang out if hes picked on or pushed around....although naso's arent usually a pushed around fish:P

Thanks for the ideas guys. I'll try nori on a rock and garlic. Fresh water dips are so hard on a fish I don't know if I'm into that.
