Some of the fish in my tank started to show signs of ick in the middle of September. My porcupine puffer, sail fin tang, Misbar clown, and two of my three Cardinals showed signs of ick (white spots covering eyes and body). My Yellow Tang started to show signs of black spots. My Valentini Puffer, remaining Cardinal, Hawkfish, Damsel, and three blennies showed no signs at all. I treated with Coppersafe on 09/21/04 and also used Maracyn 2 for any secondary infections.
