Emergency help needed. Quick question on how to save these fish.

[Fly Guy]

ok, many of you might not believe it but I have never once treated a fish with freshwater or with low SG.

I need to get these fish dipped NOW......they are dying as I write this but I dont know how fast I can drop it.......i have already made up a bucket fresh and water from the tank. Its re4ay to go and at .009. Can I dump them???

Is there a better option...like HIGH SG maybe??? I dont know...... ??

We wil go into wht iws happening after i save these fish........the polyclads are alos attacking every snail and coral as well and i have no idea where they came from............

Ive never seen anything like what i amwitnesssing at this moment. ......

Crichey it's not ich... I wish Mr. Wilson was up right now!

Hypo should still work as the parasites cannot live at that SG.

This is Terrible... I think the only thing to do is fresh water dip, unless you have some of that flat worm ex stuff. Do you have a small thak that you can put them in after you dip them. You probably dont want to out them back in the display tank until you get rid of the flat worm issue. If you dont have a small tank use a bucket.

Hope things worked out.

I have a bit of an Ich outbreak right now. Last fish I brought in must have brought it with him. Only the tangs seem to be affected. I hope it stays that way.
