my angelfish is sick

[dp827]

hello all i have an angel fish in my tank and he appears to have a white powder coat all over him plus some white spots is this is or is it something else. He is eating well and seems very active but it looks like he is covered with a coat of white powder any suggestions?

i thought that ick was just white spots not a powdery coat plus spots

We'd need to see a photo to help more. But check photos of ich, amyloodinium and brooklynella

Its most likely this is due to certain tank conditions like either water quality or even due to the angelfish diet. I see at the bottom of your post that the tank is a 75, so im sure that this is either a dwarf angel or so, and not a larger angel species. :(

I would agree that pictures are needed, even if it's just off a mobile or something to give us somewhere to start a diagnosis...
