Since it's an antibiotic, it could kill all the good bacteria in the system. I quite agree with the others, never ever medicate a reef system.
I also agree with cheeks69. This could be Marine Velvet, and is very serious.
As for a skimmer, I do consider them to be "highly desireable", but they will not solve a disease problem. However, a skimmer can greatly improve water quality, and this is a key factor in heathy fish.
