I had the same dilemma with my tank. cleaner wrasse will NOT cure ich, neither will the method I am about to tell you, but it worked for me twice.

treat all food with metro and focus for 21 days..

the only way to eradicate Ich from a tank is to remove all fish from main tank and go fallow for 8 weeks.
Interesting method to cure ich. I hope to prove ich can be treated in a reef tank successfully.

I've dosed carbon (vodka/vinegar) for a while now with varied success to keep nitrates in check. Based on some friends in the hobby recommendations, I thought I'd try a H&S sulfur denitrator to help control nitrates. I'm starting off at a drip per second and will adjust accordingly. I'll report periodically how it goes.

Looks awesome. How do you not have Xenia covering the entire tank?
