My one female white skirt tetra had ich really bad, so I put medication in the water about a week ago (it lasts for a month) and turned the heater all the way up. It appears to be going away (Spots on her body have gone away and the ones on the fins look less pronounced), but I heard that heating the tank without putting in a little salt makes it worse. Is the disease just hiding inside her without the white spots or is it actually getting better? I don't want her to die. In the past few weeks since I got all my fish, 6 have died and I only have 5 left.
