So ich begins.....

So I picked up my second and third fish on Thursday, a black and orange ocellaris clown with the black being near 2" and the orange about 1". Woke up Friday morning to find a few white spots on the orange and within an hour they were gone.



Had trouble feeding the orange one Saturday and Sunday between brine, mysis, and 1mm Life Spectrum pellets. Brought home the .5mm pellets today and he ate like a pig.



Come home tonight (Monday at 1am) and find he is got about a dozen white spots on him now and hasn't had any since Friday. He's running around the tank literally "vibrating" as he swims but not rubbing against anything yet.



Water is all good and nothing off there. Tank is 5 weeks old. Royal Gramma and black one are doing really well and RG has healed a torn fin from when I brought him home two weeks ago.



At this point I'm hoping to nurse my orange guy back to health but my gut says due to his little size and actions, he will not fair too well. Was hoping to avoid ich in my tank but it seems it is here. My greatest fear from a few threads ago is now here and I have to deal with it.
