Flashing But no Ich/ick

[Bizzaro]

I recently moved my two pair into there own 100G tank.. But after 4 days of them being inside the tank i notice they are flashing on my sponge filter. I don't see any ich on them... they look healthy and happy. They are also eating just fine... The temp was 4F diff in the two tanks. What should i do? raise the temp to 88 an a little salt?

itching and scratching can be number of different things. just watch for other symptoms and keep up with regular water changes/tank and filter maintenance. ;)

Watch for more rapid respiration, see if they're trying to scratch their gill covers, in particular. Maintain good husbandry.

They may have flukes or protozoan external parasites, or nothing at all...
