white sand on cories or ich??

[Sgooosh]

hello, i've recently be treating for ich, and there are tiny white dots on the cories that look like they might be ich, but are not as big as ich dots...
I am really confused and I hope you guys can help me a bit. I would like to finish the treatment
other fish have no ich symptoms or dots, and the particles are only visible on one type of cory, maybe becuase they are bigger

They almost look like pearling plant bubbles or silica bits. They are not opaque and translucent sort of.

It does look like ich, sometimes sand can stick to the slime coat if they have excess slime but they look healthy in that regard. Probably ich, especially if you already had/have ich

Hmm i took these photos in the morning and now they are all gone…

What are you using? Ich doesn't thrive on Corys because of the armour, but the armour would also keep sand off. I expect the cysts have burst and you have freeswimmers, so stay the course. That looks beatable.
It's a Cory problem if it lands on the soft tissues in the gills. Then it is murder to clear.
Ich comes in many sizes.

I have had ich outbreaks go fast when the meds hit them hard. The cysts burst, and the freeswimmers are done for. You just can't trust your good fortuine, and you have to stay the course.
