well, I have a black tang that I got a couple months ago. He was very healthy and ate like a pig. Then he got some ich. I quarantined him and did hypo in a 20g tank. after about almost a month, he hasn't got any ich for over a week now. But now the problem is that he has some white stuff on him. it looks like little sand that is stuck to him. it's not ich, I'm pretty sure. and also his stomach is caved in all of a sudden, like over night!! Now he won't eat! I don't know what to do. I fed him with omega 1 flake food, and frozen brine/mysis. Also I can't get him to eat nori. any help???

Are you testing the water in the QT? What are the test results? Maybe something is off. Try soaking his foad is garlic. Do you have any flow in the QT?

"Little sand" sounds like ich to me. I agree get some garlic and soak his food. Is he eating anything?
