any pics? ich?
Now I do notice some speckles of white spots.

I hope they can self recover naturally if this is really white spots

My 3 chromis died each one after another day and today my purple firefish decided to give up too and died. However..my purple firefish don't have the usual white spots but more of like blotches of wound. I suspect coz their skin is different from the rest

If you want to avoid losing any of them, prepare a QT tank. You might need to transfer them before it is too late. Most likely it is an Ich problem. I personally will suggest run UV. You can buy a submersible one. Make sure it is in the sump. No fish or you should see the UV light directly. Very hard for fishes to die when there is UV. In worse case hyposalinity can help. Worked for me. Meds are difficult to confide in. Copper is like a last case scenario as it can kill the fish too if done wrongly.
