I have a 60 galloon tank ... I bought this Clown loach 3 weeks and I think it brought Ick into my tank... Thing about it I didnt know what it was because he always hid... Then my biggest Denison Barb died out of nowhere I dont think he had it but he died last week. I cant find my Pleco at all i bought him with the Clown loach he been MIA all week.
****So here is how I messed up....***
I keep my temp at 80 anyway for my fish I waa doing some research via. internet and seen alot of info about aising my tank to 86°F so I did. Today 12/13/14 ... I also had added the API Ick cure medication.
My tank has a blue tint to it, I also did a 25% water change prior to adding the medication and took my Activated Carbon out of my filter but my regular blue filters are still in there (dont that have carbon in it also) someone tell me do I take that out also.
Soooo my clown loach is laying at the bottom he is breathing deeply and I want to take his life for being the culprit.... lol Im just playing but im mad at him. Also will this mess up my live plants I have 11 of em and been growing them since I got my tank 4 months ago. They already was going through this whole brown algae thing, someone help me out please on my situation specifically.
