Pale tang.

I got a tang a couple weeks ago, but found out it was too small for my 30gal. I know I am dumb, but I moved him over to my friends house into his parents saltwater tank. I was overthere this morning and he looks really pale and a couple spots on him, that kinda look like ich. What should I do?

 

My advice would be to get him out of there and setup a QT tank to put him in. That way you can treat what ever he has without harming the rest of the tank.

How should I set up a qt?

 

Get a tank, fill it up with water... add a filter for water movement and some filtering, no carbon just the sponge pad. No sand, just some cut off peices of PVS pipe so the fish can hide in. Thats about it. That way you will be able to treat your fish with whatever product you choose.

What kind of products should I use.

 

Well first off make sure you identify what the fish has... if it really is ich then there is a whole bunch of different ways of going at it. Do a search in the forums here and you will find plenty of answers.
