Check for ammonia, nitrite, and any other stress factors that would
cause them to get it.

My tang has been itching itself for weeks/months, and often allows the
4-stripe damsels to "chew" on him. However, he's a nut case anyway,
so I didn't worry about it (maybe a newbie error). Now my Coral
Beauty has some bright white dots on it, and it's starting to itch as
well.
Could this be marine itch? Should I isolate these two and treat with
Copper Sulfate? I read that pygmy angles don't handle Copper sulfate
very well.
