I had noticed that one of my tangs had ich. And I was treating it with melafix marine. And it was looking better. En I get up this morning and my kole tang and bicolor blennies are dead. When I took them out I could see tiny things crawling on the skin. And now my clownfish don't look good at all..

Should I catch them and treat them in a different tank with this?

Do you think it's the ich that's killing them?

Ich can def kill your fish. IMO melafix dont do much to ich. Hyposalinity in a qt tank is the best way, or copper in a QT tank will work also. Hope you can save them. Usually if they stop eating from my experience they die. Good luck to you.

Yeah it has wiped out all but one of my clownfish and a yellow corris wrasse the wrasse is still in the tank because. Can't catch him and the clown is in a qt tank. The wrasse looks fine and the clown doesn't look bad but he's definitely not good.

Clown looks like he's got Fin Rot. Definitely need to set up a hospital/QT tank. Bacterial infection possible.
You say your parameters are low but good. Could you please post the exact readings?
