Powder brown tang
Sailfin tang on its way out
2 ocellars clown's
Bangi cardinal
Coral beauty
Alge Benny
4 green crosmis I believe the culprit

Yellow tang still healthy
You have to take out every fish in the tank and put them into QT. Tank should be left fallow for 3 months. I am on the same boat and the hawkfish looks like it is now immune to velvet but can still harvest it as long as it is in the tank. And it makes me feel dumb whenever I try to catch it.
