Diagnose and Treatment of O. Clownfish(Long post)

I'm not sure exactly what aliment has attacked my Ocellaris Clownfish. I noticed a couple days ago one of them start to get litte white bumps on it. The fish now has more bumps on it then when I first noticed it, and my other clownfish has started to get them.

I have not noticed either one of them scratch since I saw the bumps, they are both eating normal, and they seem to be swimming just fine. I have noticed that the first infected fish hides more while the lights are. Now, since the lights have been off, he is swimming near the other one in the front of the tank.

I'm not sure which of he few aliments it could be. And since I do not know they disease, I can't even try to treat it.

Thanks for any and all help.

Do you have a quarantine tank? It won't cost more than $30-40 to put one together, just a 10 gallon, some PVC pipes or something for hiding, and a power filter. Might be a good idea to move both clowns til you get it straightened out.

Maybe ICH?

Ich is quite common in new SW tanks and even in "established" SW tanks. As mentioned above i would get a quarantine tank setup.
