I have a 55g freshwater tank. It has 2 Dalmatian mollies, 1 orange panda molly, and a clown pleco. The mollies have been in the tank for about three months and where all when the same tank at the pet store and the clown pleco was added later about 2 weeks ago. The clown pleco brought ick into the tank without me catching it and all four of them got it. I have been treating with the API super ick cure. I did one dose and another after 48 hours so we are on day 3ish of treatment. The mollies have clearly gotten better as the spot are going away but the clown pleco has got it bad! I’m a new fish mom so I don’t really know what to do and how quickly they are supposed to recover. One of my mollies has had ick before right when the pet store I saw the spots I never treated the tank because I didn’t even know what it was at first, but she just got better! The temp is at 80 and I haven’t been testing the water due to the fact that it is blue and the results would have hard to read. I took the filter cartridges out but the filter is still running. I’m at a loss currently. Please help! Advice would be Appreciated!
