So I noticed the white spots on my green terror the other day and have begun treatment for Ich. Heres my situation. Feel free to chime in, I need advice.
Gear: 125G tank, Fluval 404, Power Head, Air stone, 2x300W heaters
Stock: Texas Cichlid, Peacock Cichlid, Green Terror Cichlid, Bumble Bee Cichlid, Orange spot Pleco, Tiger Barbs, Moon Crab, Red Ear Slider.
I began treatment Monday by doing about a 30% water change and very thorough gravel vac. I put a little extra dechlorinator to help slime coat. Temp was normally around 80 deg F so I upped it to 82 for now, plan to go to 86. I bought Rid Ich recommended by lfs and dosed exactly as directed, 55ml for 125G.
Tonight I plan to do a 25% water change, gravel vac, normal dose dechlorinator, temp to 84, half dose of Rid Ich.
Concerns: Will my moon crab be OK with Rid Ich?
Will my turtle be OK with Rid Ich?
will my pleco be OK with Rid Ich?
Rid Ich says do water change and dose same every day, shouldnt I lower dose to not concentrate?
