Aproaching Ick... need tips.

Post by Protean » Wed Nov 28, 2007 6:21 am

Hello everyone, been a loach geek for more than 10 years. Love this site. Finally registered after 3 years , haha. Heres my question. I have some around 11 corys, 4 otos, and new addition of 4 clowns. One of the otos has developed ick. he has around 3 to 4 of ick on his body. One of the corys has it to , I just noticed it right now. Should I treat the hole tank also? . Its a planted tank. Should expect a full out break. Please let me know to reduced and out break. I already did a 20% water change, I gravel cleaned it too. I added Melafix and pimafix to fight some type of fungus that one of the cory has. Thanks in advance. I have an empty 10gal tank, but its in the attic. What type of ick treatment would you guys and gals recommend?

hi protean

dose the tank the fish are in, i'm a fan of interpet products as they are the only ones that work for me.
so you need interpet 6, it's safe with your botias.

i won't wish you the best of luck cos you don't need it.
