I’ve had my blue hippo for about a month(white dots appeared about two days ago), it is eating well and extremely active. White dots are only appearing on the black areas of the fish and near the tail. Is this ich? If so how do I treat it? (All other fish especially tangs do not have any dots)
Sorry the picture isn’t good, it’s all shriveled up, and the mouth is wide open and I can see white stuff coming out . Completely off the rocks, no footing at all

About a week ago I had a fish die out of the blue. This fish was never being super successful in the tank since I got him. Maybe a month before his death. I didn't notice any specific reason to his death. But decided to keep a close eye on the rest of my fish.
This morning I have a clown fish...
I have three clams. All maxima. The first two (3 inches and 2.5 inches) are doing great. Healthy and open all the time. A month back I got a little Purple maxima. About 1.5 to 1.75 inches.

I am in dire need of help to save the corals I currently have in my care. All my corals seem "***** and dying" lately. I've included pictures of ones that are pretty bad, but this seems to be a common issue throughout the tank. I am hoping someone can provide direction on what could be the issue...

One of my torch corals arrived dead, and its tentacles flew into my wavemaker, converted into many places, and landed all over my tank. Some land on my other corals.
Do I have to water change? Is it dangerous? or will it be fine and not harmful to my other corals?
Please help
