My newest tank has ich, just noticed it this morning. My koi angel has it on his left fin. My neons have it all over.

I've heard that raising the temp and adding salt over a few week period is the best way. That's what I want to try first. I'm worried about the fish tolerating salt though. I also have a flounder and bn pleco in there.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
 
You don't need salt to treat ich.
Increase temperature up to 86-88F
Increase aeration
Increase gravel vacs and water changes
Leave the temp up for at least one week after the last spot is seen

Neons and plecos can be salt sensitive.
