That was my falt on the temp! I always rais the temp to speed it up so I can get it all out. It was late and was not thinking what the hot water was going to do. But at the same time. When I treat my tank with rid ich I raise the temp so I don't have to treat as long

Raising the temp will speed up the ich. Marine ich isn't death sentence as it is most often with freshwater ich. A healthy fish can fight off ich most of the time. As long as the fish are eating well there is no need to get too worked up, but you should still look into taking action. Using garlic will help entice the fish to eat. There is a debate as to whether or not it boosts the immune system of the fish, but I won't go in to that. Also you may want to do some reaserch on the life cycle of ich, as it can take some time after the spots disappear for the system to be safe to add more livestock. There are plenty of great threads on here if you do a search.

Best of luck and hope this helps,
