Iching tang

[Damarferg]

Help I have a kole tang in my 65 reef tank and he's been itching I see only white spots on his fins but not anywhere us. Anything I could do

Quarantine before you infect other fish. You can try medication or hyposalinity treatment. Bigger question is why is the tang sick, stress, water quality, is it a new addition??

I think hes stressed out because I bought a new lighting setup and the tang isn't used to it

In the future, if you get lights that are a lot more intense you should get a couple layers of screen of some sort and slowly remove them over a couple weeks to let fish and coral adjust or raise the lights up high and slowly lower them
