I thought my angels were sick with ick they had white spots on their fins.I added some salt and raised the temp to 86. I figured it might be from the stress of the move in a 5 gal bucket for a 20 min ride. The next day most of the spots were gone. Well its 6 days later. There are just a few spots on most of the fish.On 1 of the pics you can see on the white one there are 2 spots on the side rather large like the protective skin is off the scales. The black one have a few small spots one is on his lip. I thought i was loosing 1 last night he was not very balanced . head pointed up most of the time. He seems a bit better today. Could i be treating the wrong thing or is there any meds i can give them. All the other fish in the tank are fine the silver dollars are a bit hyperactive bu are tolerating the 86 degrees. Any help would be great

Have you been dosing ich meds? You might need to to fully kick the disease if temp and salt aren't doing the trick.

The head pointing up might be a swim bladder issue. Feed your angels some shelled green peas (source: Aquarium FD - Swim Bladder Disease - Disease Identification, Diagnosis & Treatment).

Hope they turn out ok.

Sorry for your losses. I hate when my fish die, but casualties are hard to avoid when they get sick.

They had not passed yet but i had to do the humane thing and put them down they stopped eating several days ago.I isolated them in their very own tank. Was hoping that the stress would be better when the other fish were not picking on them but they just kept getting worse. The 4 that i have left seem like they are doing much better they are swimming all over there is only 1 that has his fins tucked in. I have tried my best with them. It wouldnt be so bad but i looked up the prices of the types i have they are between 10-20 bucks each for dime to nickel size. The bodys on these are between 4-6 inches can only imagine what they go for.
