Ok friends I thought I had cured my Picasso with formalin but whatever she had got into my other clowns and I'm in desperate help to identify what it is I tried to qt all clowns in a 10 gal but ended up only leaving my Picasso true perc pair in there and they died with treatment from Kordon rid ich plus as it has formalin in it. Now I just dosed prazipro and now my female clown is breathing heavy maybe heavier as she was already breathing heavy. My other clowns look to have ich and whatever it was that the Picasso had. I don't know whether if the Picasso was wild caught.

Did you get all the rid-ich out of tje system before dosing the prazipro? If not, I would replace 80-90% of the water immediately.

Check your ammonia if you treated in the display tank. It may be spiking from dying inhabitants in the live rock.

I really don't know what it is, but giving this a bump...

The rid ich was in a different tank. Ok I'll test now
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
