Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I would really encourage you to be patient and wait before you go tearing your tank apart or making a spear or trap, etc. It could be nothing more than a harmless brittle star, like somebody else said, that would be my first guess.
Wait and try to get a better look at it so you can get a...
I bought this 6 months ago, has already saved me from floods several times when refilling my top-off tank. Great product:

Count me in!! And that is an awesome flight of Insignia!! I only have the 2001, defintiely one of my favorite wines. I too love the california wines. Silver Oak, Dominus, Quintessa, Caldwell, among my favorites.
Hey Rod, huge "wino" here, I have a well stocked cellar and have even started doing the "make your own wine" thing at a local place. Would love to get more info about your club.
I have old Phoenix 14K bulbs that I was just about to take to be recycled if you want them, they still work. I am about 45 min away, but my fiance works in point pleasant and I can send it with her tomorrow.
Well the above link says copper works best, so i would follow the info in the above link, as that will take care of Ich also. The only way to get rid of the parasites in the display is to let it go fallow for a couple of months.
It seems like you had alot of fish in there for the tank being...
Unfortunately we have all been down this road, I really doubt it is Ich, as it takes a severe infestation and weeks for Ich to kill a fish. Unless you can get them out and put them in a hospital tank you really dont have any options, but to wait it out and keep your fingers crossed. All those...
That is not Ich, I have a feeling from the picture and the amount of deaths you have had it is marine velvet. Unless you treat the entire tank or QT them, you are probably going to lose all your fish. In addition, clowfish rarely get Ich because they have a very thick slime coat. Sorry.
I think that Seachem supplement is meant to raise CA in times that you need to boost your CA levels. If you add just that you will drive down your DKH, that is why you need to dose the 2 part. Give me a call when you have a chance and I will explain further.
Salifert is a pretty good kit but sometimes you can get a "bad batch". If you want I will check your calcium with my kit to see if they are close.
Have you dosed that Seachem calcium supplement??
You should be dosing a part A&B solution, not just calcium...
