I posted this yesterday but I cant find the original post.
My bicolor blenny started scratching himself on substrate yesterday and today has gotten alot worse. I cant realy tell if he has anything on him because he moves so much and when he stands still he changes color with little ehite stripes on him. So if he has ich he is camoulflaging it! I notcied that my pseudochromi has also itched against the substrate a couple of times but no where near as much as the blenny. Blenny is also biting his own tail, like a dog who has a itch.

BTW this is a quarantine tank and here are the fish in it.
BIcolor blenny(rubbing on substrate ALOT,biting himself)
Pseudochromi(rubbing on substrate rarely).
royalgramma
clowngobi (yellow).
purplefirefish.
ammonia 0, nitrite .1

What do you think I should do? Start treating?

As for the blenny, it does sound like it has some type of parasite it's trying to get rid of.

Here's a pic of my BCB by the way, neat fish, hope yours makes out ok.
