new fish and ich

The friendliest place on the web for anyone with an interest in aquariums or fish keeping!
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
I would wait a week after the meds have been finished (which should be 3 days after the last spot of ich has been seen). Make sure the meds have been removed from the tank water by using carbon in your filter (if you haven't already). Do make sure the fish you are adding have been quarantined by you for at least 2 weeks; you don't want to give your fish ich again, and it isn't always visible initially!
 
I would not add anymore fish to your tank until what ever you are treating in your tank has gone, like Allivymar said it is a good idea to QT any new arrivals just to make sure you don't put anything else in your tank.
