Ok, my Blue Hippo tang developed ich shortly after purchasing him. I have had tang and 2 clownfish in a QT tank for almost 3 months. I did the hypo treatment, but the ich came back on my tang about 2 weeks ago and he still hasn't recovered. I'd really hoped that I'd taken care of the problem, but now I'll have to wait for this bout to be over and wait and see if he gets it yet again. I do frequent water changes and monitor the salinity level each time. I'm using a instant ocean hydrometer with the swinging arm. Is this thing just junk? I've seem some other people post about a digital hydrometer. Is that what I should try next? I'm very worried about cost I don't have much room to manuever in my budget right now. I'm also curious as to why he keeps getting such bad cases of it but my clownfish haven't had it yet. Any advice would be great. I'd really like to get these guys back into my main tank and off my kitchen counter. Should I try one of the copper treatments?
