It is highly likely that your other fish will develop ich too and ich can kill.
Soak all your food in garlic extract or garlic extreme. Feed more often and feed only garlic soaked food. The idea is to get as much in them as possible. Use dry food as it absorbs more.
Also use some selcon.
If you can get a cleaner shrimp and or neon gobies which will clean the fish as well.
Do not get sucked into a cleaner wrasse.
Good Luck
