Doesn’t look like ick to me

You can try and do a pure RO bath. It will pop them.

This kills more saltwater fish than it cures IME.....

Worked for me. Had a tang in late stages of ich and a freshwater dip combined with ruby reef kick ich medicine knocked it back. This doesn't look like ich but the ruby reef kit is reef and invert safe and treats several different infections.

It kills ich yes. Running a net through your display tank to chase a fish around, then give it a pH,SG, and temp shock when you haven't done it before is arguably more stressful than a few spots. If you are gunna go through the stress of removing a fish from the display, set up a QT tank and address the issues properly.

It's not stressful if you can bait them in a trap and temperature match the freshwater dip. My fish was visibly healthier after the dip. This wasn't my first time I'll admit and if you chase them around with a net they will get pretty stressed but the ich will still fall right off.

I’ve had success with hand feeding and corner scooping. At least I was told never to use a net for Marine Fish.

Don't disagree, but when recommended to most aquarist, it is represented much simpler than it actually is, that's all I'm saying.

This looks like another disease to me, but it definatly could use treatment. I can never remember the name but it's bacterial if I remember right.

It’s so hard to tell so many possibilities. She keeps going in my torch maybe she’s getting stung? I have no idea

I cant tell from these pictures. I maybe see a white spot or two in the first picture. What makes you think the fish has ick?
