fish disease question

Eron · 06/08/2006, 11:22 AM

my tang, copper band, and bicolor came down with something this morning, they have tiny little white bumps on them, the clowns and gobys are fine. There has been no stress on any of the fish and the water parameters are fine. Does anyone have any idea what this might be. P.S. everybody is eating and acting fine.

Most likely Marine Ich (Cryptocaryon irritans)
