Learned about ich the hard way..

When my tang would start showing white spots all over I soaked its food with some minced garlic and it seemed to get rid of the "ich" in a short time. It showed up again like two weeks later, so I repeated my home remedy and he cleared up again. Maybe just beginners luck, aye?

 

well, heres a little update. fish have been in qt for 6 days now, the water is getting nasty so im going to do a 50% for each container tomorrow and add more copper. Lionfish is doing fine eating well, yellow tang is doing ok..the trigger and bluehippo are in the same tank but they wont come out and eat, i put some formula one in there hopefully they will eat it. I dont think my fish are liking this at all. On a good note though, the reactor I got made my dt water like crystal clear, the tank looks awesome now. I just needs fish again...

 

if you can qt them , ich goes thru a cycle in tank stuff doesnt work well , me i use a formalin product in my qt , i leave them in for a short time (half a day ) pull them out and alls good. you have to wacth them closly while in the qt .the tank i bring the salinity down low and pop those little bastards....thats in a fo tank.. good luck
stay away from copper imo
