    If you have live rock there's only one way to test for ich. Stick your finger in the water and then taste it, if it's salty, your aquarium has ich. ;)

    As far as the rubbing goes, it could be many things or nothing, just keep an eye on your clown.

    If everything that isn't a fish is left in a fallow tank and if the fish are treated, there doesn't need to be Ich in your tank.
