Help!!! Marine Velvet

I have recently been a victom of Marine Velvet. And it all started right after I took all 150 pounds of live rock out of my tank to catch one very mean & fast Koran angel.

I have a 125 Gallon tank with a proclear sump, also have 25 watt uv ster. Im at the end of my rope here. I dont want to stress all of my fish out again by trying to catch them and putting them in my qt tank.

Ive been mixing garlic extract in there food. I have a very beautiful bubble tip anemone that my tomato clown is hosting in. Also tons of snails and crabs. So treating this tank is very limited.

Ive been reading on beta glucan, and most of the results seem great. But Im still not sure what else I should do. Ive been doing 20% water chages daily for 3 days.

The fish that im worried the most about is my heneocas butterflyfish. And my 3 occelaris clowns. They seem to be the ones most affected by this. The others are breathing very rapid.

Tank has been setup for over 9 months....

PLEASE any advice would be helpful. I feel really bad about this and would love to help them any way possible. Thanks in advance.
