    Well Ich is a highly debatable subject so read up on it and form your own plan. If ya get an outbreak, you can at least have some emergency basic cheap things at the ready.

    That seems WAY too often to me, I'm about every other day for my hydor. But I skim real dry.

    That should work, not much light going in through there!;)

    It slides right onto it. I'm thinking I'll just decrease airflow and if that doesn't do it I'll add the suction cups to raise it.
