I have had my eye on a Powdered Brown Tang for a little while. Well, A few days ago, I pulled the trigger and purchased it. He seemed healthy and active. I acclimated him for a long while then introduced him to my tank. Immediately my yellow tang was irrate. He puffed up and really harrased the newest edition...and the brown is bigger than the yellow. I had over-night duty yesterday and came home to the Powdered Brown covered in ich. I'm sure the combo of moving tanks and then getting harrassed put him over the edge.

I have a QT up and ready...but have been very unsuccessful in capturing the new tang. Is there even a remote chance that this will just "go away"? ...Or are all of my fish going to get ich and kick the bucket?

Any suggestions? FWIW...the tangs are being much nicer to one another now...yellow seems to have won.

I tell ya...SW/Reef keeping is just full of ups and downs...never ending. Just when you think thing are getting on track...something else pops up.R
