Coralgurl,

Sorry your fish is having a hard time. Sounds like she's kind of weak right now. I would not move her and add more stress unless there is aggro in the tank like a fish picking on her. Maybe move the flow higher to keep her from getting pushed around so much. Sounds like parasitic worms. This has happened to my blue powder tang in the past. Three feedings a day sounds like an awful lot. Why so much?

I would just soak all food for 10-15 minutes in intestinal worm medication. There's a bunch of them on the market. Sounds like you've already used them. One person told me it takes three weeks to get rid of them completely but don't think you need that long. More like 1-2 weeks.
