the first pic seems to show some parasitic activity but its still kinda hard to tell without knowing what your water param's were what temp the tank stayed at salinity, etc. But I think it could either be ich or some type of parasite not sure though..

tank perameters are all normal. now my black and white clowns have stopped eating I will be taking them out and putting them in copper all the rest are doing better now that the powder blue is out?

Powder blues are notorious for ich. 1st pic appears to be a severe case of such.
I recommend QT for ALL other fish, and fallow the tank for 6 wks, or try the garlic and med coctail.

a bit of an update... I lost all but 3 fish =( so far the tank has been empty for 10 days. I believe I was fighting a case of brookenela or odinium. only 3 fish left are the purple tang blue throat trigger and my six line wrasse all healthy and doing better in the QT.
