Please help, is this black ich?

Looks like it to me as for cure the fw dip will help but not eradicate it you need to prazi dose once, wait about a week then do a 20-25% water change and then repeat the dose then do another water change

Yep black ich. Prazi and be sure to heavily aerate.

got a biota yellow tang from lfs recently, is it black ich? I did a FW dip for 5 mins, the spots are gone for now, what should. I do next? what med to use?

This is an old post I think…..

Prazi actually doesn’t really work for encysted Turbellarian worms. The best control methods are FW dips or formalin dips and moving the fish to a new tank.
