Does this look like ick?

Got this guy two weekends ago when I moved the tangs out. Eating well. There may have been some stress since adding the purple tang in last week for time out. They are the only swimmers in there

One whole side of the body is clean which is making the other look like little bubbles, but the fish looks a bit cloudy today.

@Lost in the Sauce I can’t really comment on ich but wrasse are pretty resistant to ich and it’s only on one side. Wrasse are prone to flukes but that would be a lot.
Can you get a closer look maybe with magnifier to see if it’s raised bumps or nicks. Mine always have scrapes and nicks.
Fresh water dip might help to determine flukes.

If they get spooked and go to the rocks the get scraped up. First thing I would verify.


Its not a sand sleeper. Small crevices .
He has a cave entrance that definitely looks too small for it but opens up to a little chill spot. He was darting in there did a while after the Tang went in.

Agreed. I'm hoping all will be clear in in am. I found that the uptake was sucking a bit of air into the line causing it to blow some micro bubbles out of the outflow. Corrected that.

Don you can't go posting things like this, it gets all of our blood levels too high.

The only way to fix it is to sent us each one.
