Can you Id this on my clown. Possibly velvet?

[BL1]

Hey guys,

So on Monday, I woke up to my white tail bristletooth covered in what looked like a white dust, Monday night it passed. Then Tuesday it showed up on my male clown, he passed Tuesday night. And yesterday it showed up on my female clown, she’s still alive but acting abnormal. I’ve only got a leopard wrasse left in the tank with her. If it is velvet do I need to pull the leopard out and treat or are they “immune” to velvet and ich type parasites.

This clown looks to have two things going here- Ich and possible bacterial lesions and you want to focus first on the ich along with good water quality. Treatment will be using coppersafe or copper power in a separate quarantine tank treating at therapeutic level 2.25 for a full 30 days monitored by a reliable Copper Test kit such as Hanna Brand- No API brand. Also monitor Ammonia levels while in quarantine with a reliable test kit and add aeration during treatment using an air stone.
Any other fish in the tank should also be included as they have been exposed to this and tank will have to be Fallow(without fish - coral and inverts can remain) for 6-8 weeks to assure parasites die off without a host fish
