It sounds like Ich. Since this is a FW tank you can treat it with a good copper/formalin combo and knock it right out. ------------- Steve http://utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=40637&PID=356246" rel="nofollow - My Old 180G Mixed Reef Currently: 120G Wavefront Mixed 29G Seahorse & Softies Running ReefAngel Plus x2 435-8 |

I agree with Steve, but a would also add aquarium "rock" salt. Don't add salt if you have plants or snails. ------------- Shaun American Fork "Would you leave a dead cat in your kitchen till tommorow?" Builderofdreams |

I agree with Capnmorgan. Treat as he said.
