Hey there guys, I am wondering if anyone has had problems with resistant ich. I have had three clown barbs that have had ich for about 6 weeks now. They were in my main 46 gallon tank with about 20 other fish. I removed them and put them in my quarantine tank after about 2 weeks of treatment in the main tank because they were the only three fish that would not get better. All of my other fish never really had ich or they got better. I have treated with 3 different methods so far. I had the tank up to 88 degrees with salt and aeration and that did not do anything. Then I treated with a formalin/malachite formula, and I have also tried coppersafe and paraguard. I do not have any problems with the main tank anymore just the quarantine tank. I am not sure what else to do. two of them have gotten really ill looking now. Anyone have any other ideas? I def got the ich from the LFS probably from some plants.
