So a strange event is taking place. I have a nice pink tail trigger in my tank. totally healthy and eats like a pig.
So 2 nights ago I was removing the shedded shell of my coral branded shrimp and as I'm bringing it up from the bottom of the tank my trigger swoops in and steals it from my fingers. the then THRASHES the carcas and eats most of it. As soon as he's done i notice he has white spots on him. Maybe 15 or so? I assume its ich but I don't know.
2 days later and not a single fish other than the trigger has the white spots. he has a few less now, maybe 7 or so. So now I'm thinking maybe it's prickles or something from the shrimps shell he was thrashing around? Is this possible? Can one fish get ich and the rest not, even a naso tang?
The whole thing is just weird...
