    Hi Guys,

    Got a Angelfish last night and noticed after i put it in the tank theres many white clumps on the bottom and on the fins.

    From what i can see on the fins its ich however unsure about the bottom half.

    I've taken a video :

    Lamarcks angelfish - YouTube

    It's eating well , actively swimming around and always in the open.

    * i did notice the fins in the shop but thought it just had gotten into a fight ( Bad lighting in the shop , Direct sunlight )

    Any help would be brilliant , All my other tank mates are perfectly fine. I've battled Ich before and won countless times..

    Really need a QT tank!

    Thanks guys!

    No, its a 90G tank.

    Not doing anything wrong , if you read above then you understand why i have this issue. I purchased it under the impression it had some fins missing and not full of ich

    My parameters are all fine as i even checked before going to purchase the fish.

    I don't come here to be judged , i come here for help about issues i'm facing. Its a completely different looking type of ich than i have previously encountered hence the reason i'm asking.

    just from the little bit I saw that is definatly ich, mt ranibow fish in my FW tank had it that look very similar to that almost clumps or cottage cheese. treated and it all went away. being that its a reef tank though and that its eating well just watch real close and be ready to QT him.

    Correct and i understand what I've purchased.

    I thought you was coming across abit strong however i just read "all due respect " which i didn't see before as i were on my iPhone.

    I do apologize Vinny.
