Hi,

I bought a blonde tang and a regal tang and it got ich after a week. I also noticed that the regal tang has brown spots too. I have them in a reef tank and couldnt catch them. I was told by big als not to worry about them and just keep feeding the fish and it will defeat the parasites as long as I feed them proper food. I started soaking fish food with selcon, zoecon and garlic. They both still eat like a pig but I am worried they might die eventually. What could the brown spots be?

The regal 1 is actually the picture of the powder blue. Would you guys recommend a 10 gallon qt for two tangs? Also, I have several fishes that are not infected in the reef tank. I hace to quarantine all of them now correct?

Do not QT them in a 10 or even 20G tank as it will just add more stress. Best thing you can do at this point is just wait it out. As long as they are eating, they should be fine. Tangs get ich very quickly and IMO its nothing to really worry about.
