Angry Damn Stupid Itch!

Hey everyone!

I noticed today that my trigger had these big white blemishes all around his eyes and after i fed him, he started to crazily rub and swim against my live rock, appearing to scratch himself. A few minutes later i noticed my blue tang starting to do it, however not as roughly.

I have done some research and i think that it is itch

It seems to die down and i think it has gone, however then it comes back. I set up my quarantine tank again (my 85L plastic tub with a filter) and put a piece of rock to seed it.

What suggestions do you guys have of how i can handle this? I have a fair amount of fish so getting them out will be tough, however i dont have that much room to put them into.

I have about 15 pieces of coral in the tank, and i was thinking that it might be better for me to take all the corals and put them into the quarantine, then treat the tank with copper and other medicines.

Any thoughts??? :mad: :mad: :mad:
