I would say treat them all immediately. IF there are no invertebrates in your tank you could also do a hyposalinity protocol (and avoid copper) there is also a sticky for that on the top of the forumThanks a lot! So it is not Marine velvet you think as this was my guess??? Fish is still eating like crazy and not any other behaviour issues. No power head swimming and no scratching. Don't have a QT tank so have to order one in. Hope he will make it another day or two. Would you treat all other fish immediately as well or wait for symptoms? Don't have to treat shrimps correct?
FYI - I meant to mention - you can use a brute food safe container as a 'QT Tank' - just a heater and sponge filter - and an ammonia alert badge. I tend to use fritz bacteria in the tank when I put the sponge filter isI would say treat them all immediately.

I thought Ich because it looks like ich, and velvet usually has breathing problems early. My guess is that this didn't happen 'overnight' but rather it can be harder to notice early on
