clown loach and ich

[danielleee]

hi.
my tank is infected with ich at the minute. its not really bad but what i was wondering is if its normal for clown loach with ich to lay on their side for hours and hours ?

The clown loach can handle fairly high temperatures. If the rest of your tank mates can, slowly raise the temperature above 86 to help get rid of the Ich. What else is in the tank?

Clown Loaches are prone to Ich as they don't actually have scales - They have a skin more like some saltwater fish.
