Are the tangs getting enough algae/greens?
(from lettice clips or freeze dried algae flakes?)
that could be a reason for losing sacles along their lateral line

boil some spinage, freeze it and break off. My fish like it, and i am sure yours will too. just buy frozen spinage and boil it.

Hey Mikaela65,
Welcome to the forums.
Most tangs loose some color for the first few weeks in a new tank.
Replace or clean your filter media to get all ICH meds out the tank.
I agree with Mighty Tuna feed them some Algae or Romaine lettice along with your regular feedings

Stress! Also No med's in a reef tank use a q-tine tank.
