    Here is today after about 8 hours of me being away:

    It seems like the Brooklynella has turned her ghost white and also she is now showing signs of ick?! She was fine this morning and even ate. This all happened while I was away in the matter of 8-9 hours, the only thing I could think of is the six line wrasse maybe nipping at her? This started yesterday and I don't know why because they are the only two things in my tank fish wise.

    Any help would be appreciated as to what could have caused this to happen so rapidly.

    Hello,

    I have no experience with Brooklynella, but since it is like Ich, which I have experienced, and treated successfully with just fresh water dips, UV & Ozone, I suspect that the treatment recommended below is a reasonable approach.

    I wish you the best of luck...
