Update...So far I have not seen any other spots on any of the fish. All are acting ok and eating well. It will be a week this Tues or Wed. I have follow up questions.
1) Since ick is a parasite, what happens if I do not see any symptons again for say a month, 2 months, etc? I went for 2 years after seeing no signs when I previously had ick and did not have it until the other day? I would assume after a period of time the parasite would die if it cant find a host that gives into it?
2) I have been using Garlic like crazy. I even add it to my tank which is what I did 2 years ago when I noticed ick...I assume this is ok to do and cant hurt anything? I assume some % is being pulled out by the skimmer?
