butterflyfish are white spot magnets.

unfortunately very few people practice quarantine here in singapore. so expect white spots to appear now and then.

stock slowly

feed more

keep water parameters up

and buy healthy fish.

in a small tank, butterflyfish will find it harder to resist white spots. they don't belong in a small tank unless you quarantine them.

err, what medication did you dose?

there is only one medication effective against ich, and that is copper. dosing it in your tank directly will kill all your corals, invertebrates and live rock.

other methods for ich include hyposalinity, but that cannot be done on your main display tank.

there is no other chemical proven to kill ich. only copper. herbal remedies, garlic etc only boosts immunity.

i hope you did not dose any medicine in your main tank.

Great news to hear that the ich is gone.

But remember to maintain good water condition and feed food that boost your fishes immune system to keep them strong and healthy as ich will come back at times.

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
