That's a bummer on the fish, especially because they always seem hardier than coral! Hopefully it's not an infection. Anything stand out on their body? The reefmedic guys here have some good answers typically if you make a post and tag them. Glad everything else is going good!I'm watching the tank closely as I have had a couple fish deaths recently. Lost my flameback angel and have no idea why as he was doing great the night before and then in the morning was dead. Lost a Royal Gramma also. My alk was low but brought it back up. Watching another because I am not sure if I am seeing ich starting. However, treating to err on the side of caution.
Clam and corals are doing great. I love the tank. I just have to figure out how to keep the back with the pumps clean.
Yes. I have been trying to get a good picture. Tiny spots on the top fin.That's a bummer on the fish, especially because they always seem hardier than coral! Hopefully it's not an infection.

If they died quick and it's more powdery looking then it could be velvet. Ich typically doesn't kill fish that quick that I've seen. Hoping I'm wrong though, velvet sucksYes. I have been trying to get a good picture. Tiny spots on the top fin.
Sorry to hear that. Can you pull media from your display for qt?Well, not a good update. My fish have something going on. Could be a combination of things, so they are in a copper Q tank right now, all except for the Wrasse. I cannot catch him/her. It darts under a big rock and stays there for hours. I can't really move the rock without messing up the whole structure. I probably had to re-glue half the corals just from trying to catch the tang.
Needless to say, I am worried about the fish, the tank, and especially the Q tank they are in. I had no time to set up a cycled Q tank so I am going to do water changes which means I have to watch the copper level very closely. And, just when everything was going so nicely. Sigh.
Thanks, Marshall. The only media I really have is the filter sock. I had a sponge, but I cleaned it out right before all this happened.Sorry to hear that. Can you pull media from your display for qt?
It's been a bit, but after seeing @steveschuerger tank looking so good, I needed to update. My Tomini and Foxface are still in QT, a couple more weeks to go. I started doing more water changes and also adding Phyto. What a difference! I have been pulling hair algae, and now it's minimum. The corals are happy looking now.
I sent off an ICP test just to know and be sure of what is and isn't in my tank. Once I get those results back, I will feel better on moving forward and how to proceed.
I will post a tank pic later. (at work now).
Thank you! I did get the ICP back. It was low in iodine and showed a smidge of aluminum?Glad things have turned around a little for you! Did you ever get your ICP back? Have things continued to improve? Hopefully all is well!!

How is everything going on your end?
That's what my friend thought to, but I don't run it. It might come from the alkalinity I dose. I have to check what's in it.Went downhill a little, but picking back up now! Lost most SPS, but all LPS are still doing great! Interestingly, that's exactly what my ICP showed lol. Do you run seachem matrix? That's where I think my aluminum came from possibly.
