Well, I have had my aquarium for about ten years and this is the first time I have had a recognizable fish issue. I looked up fish problems on google and I am pretty sure my fish have Ick. I read and there are several medications and restrictions.
I have plants so anything with copper can not be used.
I have clown loaches so there is another chemical that is bad for fish without scales.
I also have a few cardnials, corys, and ottos.
What is the recommended treatment.
I also read that Ick is light sensitive. I have a low tech planted tank, and the light level is mid low range according to my par meter. I do water changes based on water params, usually 2-4 weeks 40%.
thanks,
Mark
