After reading leebca's thread, I am unsure whether my foxface has ich or not. It was mentioned that not all spots are ich. How does one tell the difference? The condition developed overnight after acclimating the fish to my tank with the drip procedure/temp acclimation for 2 hours, with the lights off. It had about a 1/2 hr car ride. I question that it is ich because each sandlike granule has a small black circle around it, and none of them are in the gill area. I do not have pictures as I have no camera capable of taking anything worth your time.
