That's not ich. Could be damage from running into rock or could be the beginnings brook. #reefsquad
That looks exactly like my clown did that had brook.
+2 @Adam113 Your clownfish have the early stages of brook: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/brooklynella.247938/
No doubt about it after your most recent photos.
I also see that brook kills fast, like within days. Wouldn't they have other symptoms in two months?
It's possible their immune system is building up temporary immunity, but is unable to completely overcome the parasites. Which is why you are seeing symptoms come & go.
I liked the ruby reef because it isn't a carcinogen. I just did two dips and my clown is doing fine now.
I just typed in ruby reef rally and got the smallest size since I was just using it for dips and not treating the entire tank.

Anybody else have opinions on this stuff? Want to get something ordered today and here tomorrow or Tuesday.
As @Barrett said, Rally (acriflavine) is less harsh than using formalin, but sometimes you have to use Metronidazole (in a QT) to finish the job.
Formalin is much more likely to clear brook after just one 45 min bath, but it is a toxic chemical. However, most clownfish handle it just fine.
See blue links above for more detailed info on each treatment.
