it is likely no longer Ich because it feels like the fish grow to be sprinkled in salt. whether, the question is how long have been the lifeless fish interior the tank? it could have surely been their slime coat beginning as much as detach from the physique in the event that they have been interior the tank for an prolonged volume of time.What sort of fish have been they and what sized tank do you have? Did you spot this in any respect earlier the fish surpassed? in case you spotted this earlier their deaths then this may be a case of Columnaris it is bacterial. additionally, verify your water parameters for Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate and the pH and spot the place the numbers are at..in case you could let us know that would help even further. however the main element right it is that if the fish had this cocoon type slime throughout their bodies earlier or while they died.

It is most likely, "Ick." A parasite that infects the scales. If you own fish, you should have a fish book for common problems. There is a solution you can add to the water to get rid of them.

It is a fungus called Ick. You can get medicine for it at fish stores but be careful when using it. The medicine is basically a poison and if you use too much, you can kill the fish.

Yes, it sounds like ick. Go to the fish store and ask the clerk for advice.
