    I did, I found a lot of good information, but since there were no actual photos of the different things, it is hard to narrow down the list.

    yeah it still sounds like some kind of fungus to me too. try the FW dip and picking it off before they go back to the main tank !!

    What is the best way to do it? Put them in cup of FW for a say 15 seconds then a moist paper towel to try and clean the fungus off?

    the guys i know that do it, leave the fish in for about 1 minute. Then use a moist paper towel and just try to gently pick it off. if it won't come off easily then don't pull to hard, we'll have to figure out another way. FW supposedly just makes the fish feel "drunk".

    I wish freshwater did that for me
    The nice thing to know is that if I screw this up, I know what is for dinner.
