That's terrible. I've gone through it myself and so have some friends.
Leaving it untreated will almost guarantee a near wipeout. Its a PITA but catching them out and treating them with some copper-based med. like Cupramine I think is the only way to stop M.V.
It looks like ick but much more small white specks and then it just coats the fish till they look kinda fuzzy. Nasty, nasty stuff.
Hope you come out of this better than I did. It almost caused me to quit the hobby.
