Hello, I recently (3 days) purchased 5 new fish (mated pair od BW clowns, Flame, Coral Beauty and wrasse, all are in a 40 gal QT. I just noticed that my Coral Beauty looks like it might have Ick. I made the mistake previously of trying copper treatment which killed a lemon peel. I'm assuming the entire tank is going to be effected so does it make since to setup another QT and transfer the CB into a separate tank? My plan is to try the salinity treatment.

You will need to take out all the fish out of the DT and use the TTM method for the ich treatment. The DT needs to go fallow for at least 72 days, but 90 is recommended to be safe. Tank Transfer Method (TTM) is the most effective and safeness way to treat ich.

he said it's in a quarantine tank. Get another tank and do TTM. You'll need to transfer all the fish since once one is exposed all are exposed.
