None of my fish looked like that after dying from MV. I'd guess something else.

well thanks guys, that is some relief. I will keep my eye on the rest of the fish that I had in the quaratine tank with it and they are a male blonde Naso, flame angel, coral beauty, dotty back, 2 clown fish. they look healthy and eating so far. also the CBB only been in that tank for 2 days before I took it out. So I am crossing my fingers and I will keep my eyes open for any signs before I treat the tank.

One question tho, is it safe if I want to put the frags and cuc in the DT? so in case I need to treat the tank with copper. thanks for all your help.

You don't want to treat your DT with anything. Once treated, it's never going to hold inverts.
IF you need to treat the fish, you'll need to remove them and put them in a treatment tank.

I am currently dealing with MV and I have never seen any reddish areas like that.

IME the first signs were breathing issues with infected fish, then swimming awkwardly and scratching on substrate, whitish spots similar to ich became visible but the spots blossomed and got fuzzy, then spread all over the skin, then hiding, then dead.

The reddish area looks like an abrasion of some sort. I am not familiar with CBB's but are they good swimmer's? Could it have gotten sucked into a powerhead or something similar? Are there other aggressive fish in the tank?
