powder blue got ick

i just noticed that my powder blue tang has a few spots on one side that looks like ick. any body have any suggestions? any tips will help thanks

 

When I first got my blue hippo my 2 neon gobies cleaned her right up when she got it.... Atleast thats a natural alturnative.

 

well i'vegot 2 cleaner shrimp, theicksnot bad i guess its hope for the best. i tested my waters and everything is literally perfect. so i guess its hope for the best...

 

anything stressing the fish out?

 

well i need to know some parameters.. ammonia, nitrate, nitrites, PH, temperature ??

what size tank?
what fish do you have with him?
how old is your tank?

Any tang is susceptible to ick, but Powder blue tangs are known to be EXTRA susceptible to ick. I learned that the hard way...:-/

 

you have a powder blue and it has ick. They get ick when the wind changes. I have had a cople if them. They are just the most prone fish to Ich I swear! There is not much you can do other then let them ride it out or qt them. Most fish if they are healthy will get throught it. You can try wither way.

 

parameters everything is 0 ph 8.3 and salinity is 1.023 plenty of room to swim plenty of hidding and nothing it feels threated by. feed 3 times a day... tank 150, powder blue, naso, flame back pygmy angel, 3 green chromis, 2 cleaner shrimp, 2 peppermint shrimp, lots of coral, snails crabs, urchin. all fish are 3 inches or smaller, powder is probably 4. 180 lbs of live sand 165 lbs of live rock, 220 gal protien skimmer. i'm really not to worried about it, he's had it once before.

 

fish eats like crazy and is really active, plays with other fish and says hi to me when i come in the room... perfectly healthy something might havejust stressed him out a little more than usual
