My fish are infected with ich!

[xXDiamondNekoXx]

1~I am seeing white spots on my neon tetras and 2 fish have died since two
days ago.

2~My parameters are no ammonia, little nitrites, little nitrates, and a pH of 7.6.

3~ My tank is a 10 gallon tank and it has been set up for a month.
4.~ I am using a Marina Slim Filter

5~I have 5 neon tetras (since two died), 5 lyretail guppies, and 2 neon shrimp.

6~The last time I made a water change was a week ago and i filled my tank with sand so i don't have a gravel vacuum. I would do a pwc once a month.

7~I had my fish for 3 weeks and i used a bag acclimate thing to do it.

8~I didn't add anything new to the tank

9~ I feed my fish the Tetra brand flakes

please help

Raise the water temp to 84-86 degrees if they can tolerate it and add salt 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons. Or buy one of the various ich meds but I find the heat and salt method has worked for me.

Change way more water first before anything?
No nitrites,not some?
You had 14 fish in an uncycled 10g tank?.
Change water.
And learn about ich (unfortunately)
