Ich HELP Please
Got some new goldfish who seemed to have ich and it spread to the neon tetras killing three of them and now its spread to all of the fish (goldfish, neon tetra, and guppies).
Its all over the place. On their fins and bodies.
I used a 3 day treatment (full dose) of NOX-ICH. Then did a 1/3 water change. Then the 3 neon tetras died. The Ich came back so we tried it again (half dose). It hasn't gone away so now on on the first dose of another 3 day treatment (half dose) and have decided to try raising the temp up to 86 degrees (its been at 82) to see if that helps.
Should I continue the ich treatment (this is the 3rd treatment in 2 weeks)? Is that the best temp and for how long should the temp be raised? And when should I do the next water change and how much of the water should I change?
