High Phosphate!!

My fish have been acting slightly weird the past 2-4 days. Triggers hitting rocks with there tails (maybe sides of the fish as well) Just now my lrg blueline trigger shows little white spots, so they must have a parasite My maroon clows white bands are not as nice as they ususally are. Today my Koran Angel is really light colored (it is in the middle of its color change but its not that its pail and light) and yesterday he was almost rubbing his sides on the sand.Last night my lrg bluelind did not eat, He always eats! Everyone except huma huma ate but not as much as they usually would. Only one acting/looking normal is the huma huma trigger. I will try to get pics right away. What should i do?

I wanted to do a 5 gallon water change but not sure if i should.
PH-8.0
Phos-0.5 (this suprised me just checked it 5 min ago)
NO2- 0.1
NO3- 0
Ammonia - 0
Temp - 77
KH-11
Ca-420

 

This sounds more like a case of Ich than a phosphate problem. Phosphates can be hard on corals but don't really hurt fish.

Do you have any Metronidazole on hand?

I just got home but looking at the blueline trigger closely he has alot of extra slime coat going and breathing heavy. $HIT IS GOIN DOWNHILL FAST!!

Forgot to mention I run charcol and clearmax (phosphate,no2 and no3 absorber) in my fluval canister, protien skimmer, uv sterilizer

 

No i dont. Im guessing i should get some? The only thing i have is melafix and rid ich (contains 11.25 % formalin) And i have a yellow banded maroon acclimating (and doing great) in my qt!

 

O NO!!! ICH .I just added a big peice of rock with pulsing xena and 2 kenya tree. 3 days ago the xena shriveled up its arms and is now back to normal. After discussing it with fellow 3reefers it was decided it was nothing. Could this now be something (chemical from the xena?)

 

I cant get any good pic's. Protien Skimmer is thowin out 2 many bubbles cause i put in a 1\8th dose of melefix to get something started

 

Yeah, soaking their food in it really works well on Ich if you get to it fast enough. Whatever they don't eat dissolves in the water and they absorb that all day long. I don't have any experience with Rid Ich. I've used Formalin at a higher concentration than that many times but it has always been in a quarantine tank.

 

Rodger! Ill be looking for it tomorrow, i live in a smaller town with no saltwater things. Hope its not to late for my fish
