I need help understanding WHAT I'm fighting.
Let me first say....this isn't a fast parasite. I was slowly losing fish over the course of about 3 weeks - till my healthiest Tang started showing symptoms.
Some say Ich - some say Velvet. So far, it has no effect on my other Tangs (3 others) or most of my sand burying wrasse, clownfish or garden eels. I understand the slime coat on most of the fish is probably helping a lot.
This has been going in for almost a month now. Started as a Ich flare up, due to a new fish being added and seems to have progressed. This fish didn't start showing real real signs...till a few days ago now.
Fish are 100% accustomed to Ich - I've had most of the fish for years.....and I knew I had Ich present, but it never bothered anyone.
Now, I'm fighting this.
