Okay I have no idea what disease I have in the tank right now and the only medication I have is copper and I assumed it was ich but I am not sure now. It’s been in the tank for 2 months my blue tang is in the worst shape yet. But now my yellow tang has many white spots and same with my clownfish. I will retry the cupramine treatment for 30 days I only have a salifert kit I bought a hanna checker 1 week ago still hasn’t been delivered and don’t think I can wait for it to come

You should be posting this in the disease treatment and diagnosis forum not here and an emergency tag would help as well for quicker response. @Jay Hemdal

Are you treating with copper in your display?
I hope not. This is a quarenteen treatment only
Yeah it’s a hospital tank, and I bought a hanna checker cane few hours ago. Will be doing copper treatment 0.5 level for cupramine for 14 days if this fails then I’m done

Despite the long timeline, that still looks like Cryptocaryon (ich) to me. Not too severe, but right at the cusp where it could really take off. I'd start the Cupramine back up, using the Salifert test to ensure there isn't residual copper that would add to this dose. Remember not to use any water conditioners like Prime when dosing with Cupramine.

There are huge debates on copper treatments.
I prefer Copper Power over everything.

If you find and read the thread you will see .5 is not a therapeutic level.
If I recall corectly.
