My blue tang showed spots last week which I thought was ich. The spots seemed to have progressed over the last few days, and now last night he developed some goggle eye. My question is on how I should treat him. Or if he is contagious, should I take him out of the tank before he gets the others infected?
He still seems to be eating normally. Today he had a little bit of trouble seeing the food though.
Thoughts?

hope this helps point you in the right direction. i would think with the signs of sickness progressing the way they are it would be wise to put in QT.

First sign of sick fish they get yanked, try to keep from infecting others if possible.
I've used marcyn for popeye w/ success.
