About 2 weeks ago I noticed white spots on my royal grammar (he was the last fish i put in my tank about a month ago). I tried to catch him but was unsuccessful without tearing my tank apart. After researching, I thought it might be ich and tried to keep the fish healthy with selcon and proper diet while keeping a watch on him. After a few days the spots went away and I assumed my theory of ich was correct.
Shortly thereafter my neon goby got spots. A few days later the royal grammar died and the goby looked bad. I also noticed spots on my clownfish. I decided to buy and set up a QT tank with meds. This was a few days ago. Unfortunately, with work and kids and buying things on the internet, I just set up my QT today.
The goby is missing, presumed dead, but I was about to catch the clown and a yellow watchman. Both got a 4 min freshwater dip followed by 4 mins in 50/50 fresh/salt then into QT. No flukes btw.
My question is, is this brook, velvet, or ich? The grammar looked like ich, the goby had spots then became furry ( don't have a Pic unfortunately), and to be the clown looks like brook.
I'm getting metro in the mail tomorrow, formalin on the 20th, and copper power soon. I understand brook is formalin with metro, and I think velvet is copper. Just want to make sure I'm treating right before I start.
Thank you for all your help.
