New to this forum hoping to get some answers. Looks like our fish had ick we treated them with a fresh water dip and then added itch treatment last week. They seemed fine all cleared up and this morning wokeup and one of the two clowfish had a red spot on top of his head on his white stripe. It's always swimming really low to the gravel and his face looks pale/white. We also did a 10 Gallon/Salted water change on Saturday because the nitrates were reading high! Tested nitrates last night it was between 10-20 ppm and our ammonia was testing around 5-10 ppm more on the lower end. We have a sump and overflow setup and it's a 40 gallon tank with bare live rock and live sand and we have some snails, little crabs, and 2 margueritas, and 1 I think is a slug and a star fish sand sifter. Sorry we are new to this hobby our tank was ready after almost 3 weeks passed all the testing before adding anything we had a butterfly and the two clownfish. the butterfly died a week ago and then thats when the clownfish seemed to have gotten the itch stuff with white dots/air bubble looking stuff on them.
