I was at your store this sat. and I got a small blue hippo tang and this morning I noticed white spots all over the fish. I have a 45 gallon reef tank and I have noticed my clowns are now getting these white spots. How can I treat this without hurting my inverts and coral? Is there an organic Med. I can use? I know copper will hurt my Inverts. so what are my options? What can I use to help my friends without killing my other friends? A freshwater bath will not an option because I can not catch the tang. He is fast and goes right to the rocks. Please help.....Thank you

Oops
bring the fish back as soon as possible...
you have to catch the fish...
you'll have to pull practically all the live rock to catch him
sorry
most embarrasing
we have some ich medicines that don't hurt inverts...but I don't know if they'll work

Sorry to say The poor fish has died and now I can't seem to get him away from my sally light foot. Now I just have to keep an eye on my other friends and make sure that the ich will not hurt them. No problem, at least I have learned from my mistake and am in the middle of setting up a hospital tank. Thank you for your help.
