Ich ? Help


Well, it all started a couple weeks ago when I introduced a Blue Powder Tang to my tank. He seemed healthy but after a few days he and also my Naso Tang started to get white spots.
The LFS advised not to do anything as it would likely go away on its own. Unfortunetly that did not happen. Both tangs have died since.

Now my Rabbitfish is showing a few spots also



Obviously I don't want to take anymore chances. I'm already adding some garlic extract to the tank every day plus putting garlic on the food also.

I heard also I could dip him in fresh water, but I'm not sure if I should. I'm worried it would put lots of stress on him and actually make things worse!?

LFS has also offered me to bring him in and they would treat him with cooper. Should I? What do you guys recommend? Judging from the picture it's no so bad yet, right? So should I wait a little longer to see if it gets worse? Unfortunetly I don't have a QT.
