There are many discussions here on white spots/ich parasites already. Maybe you want to read through them first?

For a cheap and effective cure for white spots, slime etc, you can try using "Gentian Violet" from Guardian Pharmacy. It cost only $4.60 for a 125 ml bottle. Please use with extreme care!

Improving water quality via daily water change is ideal. However, it can be time consuming and costly (if you use expensive salt mix). Factors to consider like how much to change to be effective. Changing too little may have little overall impact while changing too much will disturb the balance in the water i.e. the temp, pH, salinity etc. So, I would suggest an immediate treatment, use medication and then do partial water change gradually.

Although BT on off still show white spot, but not spreading to other fishes and had been eating crazily as well as pooing alot!!!!

You can get a bottle and try. Clementi 328 sells at ard near 3 red notes for a bottle.

dosed into my sump of my main tank. Reef safe, cos its bacteria not chemical. It's more of preventive measures than cure though...
