We are all some where on the saltwater journey and we all have holes in our knowledge which is why the learning and community at R2R is sooo important! I'm glad you're here!
 
Welcome to R2R, Ella! Quite a number of members from down under. Maybe you'll be able to connect with some of them.

Welcome to R2R! It’s possible you may have introduced ich with the new hammer, you wouldn’t want to medicate your display tank so a QT is in order.. be sure to check out the fish disease section of the forum.

Ok thank god!
I will definitely swing past there and up my knowledge!! Can’t have my main man die one me !!!!!
 
We all just try to help. This hobby can be so confusing at times, even for those of us who have been at it for 15+ years!

A welcome to the addiction... I mean hobby (and R2R).

Can you post a picture of Scar and the white spots?
I don't think ich would show up on a fish one day after you added a coral with it, but I guess that is possible?

Welcome to Reef2Reef!
Ich in 24 hours is unlikely, but velvet on the other hand :(

Ella, welcome to R2R! If you start a thread in the disease forum with picture of your fish, the disease team can help you out! Moorish Idols are not so great at handling fish diseases, so I'd work pretty quickly to get him treated. I believe @4FordFamily has some experience with idols specifically, so he could probably help!

This is what I wrote on Idols. :)

Also, I agree on the likely velvet diagnosis based on the timeline.

Also, welcome home to R2R, you’ll love it here. I do wish it were under better circumstances, however! :)
