No worries; I just wanted to make sure that we were on the same page.


Anyhow, since it's too late to save the dead fish, let's see what we can do with the live ones. With a 10g QT tank, 2 fish maximum; preferably 1, but since you have 2 clowns, leave them in the QT tank. Now, test kits are pretty darned useless for QT tanks. By the time you can detect ammonia, the damage is already being done. The trick is to never let it have the opportunity to build to levels anywhere close to toxic. With a 10g tank, this is quite difficult; doable, but difficult. I recommend a 2 gallon per day water change at the least. Measure the salinity daily and adjust accordingly. Yes this is a pain in the rear!! It's still much easier than dealing with ich inside the tank, so keep your chin up.

It is also very possible that what is killing your fish is not ich.
