It was the latest addition to my tank....when I bought it it was in good condition...it may just have a little white spots in it...but I feed it with garlic guard...also after I do water changes the white spots seem to disappear....it comes back after awhile....one and off

It is due to ich that your fish is rubbing agianst the rocks, it can be due to recent change in water quality or the fish already come with it when you bought it. You can improve the water quality or by either medicate the fish or leave it to battle it out . Some suggest that by feeding it with fish food soaked with Gallic will helps as well.

i soak my deep freeze krill in garlic before feeding them...

i have bought a bottle of ich medication and put my blue tang in a pail to treat it...

how long does it have to stay in there and dosing requirements?

i tried putting my blue tang in fresh water for 1-2 minutes to get rid of the ich...i noticed blackish bluish liquid coming out from its gills...any idea what that is?
