No it cannot, if you do indeed have ich, and you have not had it in the months leading up to your new addition, then you introduced it.

There is no dormant stage waiting for stress in fish to attack.

SO you are saying that it would have come on the new fish? The fish showed no signs at all in the store and then later in the evening i had tons.

I am of course, not even sure it is Ich... but it looks like it.

Assuming it is ich, and assuming that you have added nothing to your tank in the last couple months, then it would be safe to assume that it was imported by your new purchase.

I was wondering how your coral beauty was doing? Interested if she has started to get a taste of corals.

She is FANTASTIC!!! By far my favourite fish. I am glad to have added her!

Fat, Sassy and full of gusto! So far she has not touched any corals at all. I do, however, feed my tank well.

I have Lyretail Anthias so I installed a feeder. They get two feedings of NLS pellet and every second day they get mysis.

I don't think, THINK, he has any reason to eat anything else!
