      No guarantee tangs, need help but for sale

      I’ll preface it with this: more than likely what’s taking my fish is ich.

      I’ve had these fish well over 5-10, even 15 years on some. The newest ones were from a member here and that was a year ago.

      I recently moved and lost almost all my acros other than the ones a member is holding for me and now I’m watching my fish slowly perish except for the ones hanging on with ich spots.

      I’ve seen my gem tang die, PBT, 15 year old chevron, flame tang, wrasse, clown, 6 year old Achilles, several year old yellows… and a large desjardini that I’ve had for years.

      I can’t treat them, I have no physical space and my home needs my attention so I have to either watch my fish die or make the very tough decision to sell them so someone can treat them.

      This is what is left and in need of treatment.

      10 year old sohal
      10 year old purple tang, along with one that is about 3 years old.
      10-15 year old blue tang
      10 year old yellow tang
      2 year old clown tang.

      If someone wants to treat them and add to their collection then I’ll sell them for $600; if someone wants to help me out and treat them and hold them for me, I can pay you a fee we can negotiate on. The holding time may be a few months before I get a new tank up.

      If these fish perish, I may never get back into the hobby for a very long time and seeing my collection of tangs die is bringing me down.

      This tells me I had low grade, suppressed ich in tank for years and this move brought about the stress and the right wrong conditions for it to stress the fish and kill the ones that are gone.

      Anyway, if someone is serious and has the space to help save my once beautiful and healthy fish, please do so.

      Ich is easy to deal with Metroplex, focus and garlic guard.

      I am assuming Velvet...When was the last time you added something to this system?

      Feed them live black worms and run a serious UV (25+ watts) setup with slow flow. That'll be the best chance.
