ID help

My fish were showing symptoms of flukes in my DT (scratching darting and breathing heavy) so I treated them with Prazipro 2 days ago. Now I'm not so sure I ID'd it correctly.
I have posted some pictures the Clownfish looks like it has ich (it didnt have anyspots on it 2 days ago), the Juvinile Emperor is a little faded. I have 2 tangs in the tank one of them is fine and the other only has little white specks on its pectoral fins and flashes its mouth and gill area on the sand.

I have an air stone in the tank so the water has lots of micro bubbles in it.

This is definitely ich and You will need to place fish in Quarantine tank and treat with Coppersafe or Copper Power at therapeutic level 2.25 for a FULL 30 days (do not interrupt this 30 day period) monitored with a Hanna Brand copper test kit- No API brand. Also monitor Ammonia levels while in quarantine with a reliable test kit and add aeration during treatment using an air stone. All other fish in with it should also be removed as they have also been exposed to the parasites and placed in quarantine tank.
The display tank will have to be kept fishless (FALLOW) for 6-8 weeks to assure the existing parasites go through their life cycle without a host fish and die off. Inverts and coral can remain in the display (not treatment) tank during fallow period.
A quarantine tank can be as simple as a tank from a second hand store, a Rubbermaid type tub or a starter kit from Walmart which most of the needed essentials.

I was thinking it was ich, but someone I showed the pictures to says it could be Brooklynella

Not at the moment.

No, 100% this is severe ich. The trouble is, ich treatments take up to 5 days to start working, and the fish may be severely ill by then.
This looks like a fish only tank. If so, you can run hyposalinity to save the chore of setting up a treatment tank.

Why is there a Molly in your saltwater tank. The trial of putting one in as a 'canary in the coal mine' has long been disproven? Did you put up a picture?
