My tang that has been in QT now going on 5-6 weeks has a white spot that just appeared on its eye.

So far has been through 2 prazi treatments.
Two weeks into QT suffered from what appeared to be a bacterial infection and cleared up on own.

Any thoughts? I have never noticed any kind of flashing behavior. Fish seems extremely healthy otherwise with a good appetite.

If it's been through that many treatments of prazi, chances are it's bacterial.
Would Ich most likely have presented itself by now?

My quarantine was previously a baby Clownfish grow out and I am wondering if it needs to sterilized since this is the second potential bacterial infection for this fish.

ICH and Velvet usually present within 3-4 weeks so you should be good.

I’ve had Velvet pop up at least twice now at the 3 week mark! Not 1 sign of it before that. I mean none. It likes to wait a while before it wrecks DT’s. ICH usually comes on a lot quicker. Most of the time within the 1st couple weeks.
