Hi,
I have had a blue tang for a year and a half and over that time it pretty much has always had ick. I have read that these fish in particular are very prone to ick and so I wasn't overly worried as I have also heard that they seldom die from it.
For the last few months however the fish looks worse. The fins are kinda ragged looking like a flag starts to look like after its been in the wind for to many months. I know the best thing to do would be to remove him and treat him seperatly but that is a hard thing for me to do. Is there any foods or other perhaps "medicated" items that I could feed him and not harm the reef tank?
Thanks,
Greg
