That's at least ich, but I am saying it's at least Brook + Ich. Perhaps velvet as well. That's rough :(

It's weird because I didn't end up losing that many fish from it, I still have 7 fish from it and everybody is perfectly healthy now and no problems at all. Been some weeks since then quite a while and haven't seen a sign of it again, leads me to think it was something that happened in my tank, no clue what it was, that led to just a bad outbreak of ich in the tank, if it was velvet or brook I would think I would have only had like 2 fish max survive out of them all.

Some fish can kick brook, rarely velvet. Glad most of the fish are doing well now!

Yeah I was suspecting more brook than velvet, butttt the white dots did seem countable on who I saw it on, but still not sure. But yeah same here I am happy with the ones that made it especially my sailfin tang who was in very bad shape but he's as healthy as can be now!
