So my girlfriend pointed out to me that one of my newer clown loaches and blue ram had white spots on them I missed. The clown loach has three on its tail and the only has one and as of 1pm today I could not see this white spot anymore. I have immediately began to raise the water temp to treat for ick. I will try to post pictures later but th loach but it may be too quick to take a picture of. I'm actually not even sure if its ick but they are small white spots. (this is my first attempt of keeping tropical fish after keeping natives for 6 years) Also I have noticed another one of the clown loaches has really colorful fins but his body looks super pale. It looks like it is having a difficult time keeping its dorsal up and noticed it flashed multiple times inside on of my pots I have for cover for the fish. It also went on its side for a few seconds as well. This loach has zero signs of any disease and I'm wondering if its a parasite or internal ick if thats possible? Its only issue is all of his color is drained into his fins. This is a 30 gallon tank (I know its overcrowded) and I was planning on moving most of the fish to a 90 gallon next week but will have to wait until everything is cured. Also will be vaccuming and at least 20% WC when I get home
