Has the tank and all thos inhbitants been stable? Have you changed anything lately? Added new stuff? Could be that "ick attack" (add ick attack; fish die, hmmm)

what are all your parameters? whose test kits do you use?
PH, salinity, temp, alkalinity, trites, trates, amon
how often do you water change
do you have a skimmer
I've had luck treating ick w/ Sea Chem Garlic mixed w/ brine shrimp

When you treat for ich it's best to make sure your tank is heavily oxygenated.
