ok, here I am on my fourth day of battling ich. I may or may not have four stable fish, but they aren't getting any better. I got a really great article from Allivymar on ich, and it suggested four ways to deal with it. I have been using malachite green and raised the temp to 80. Is it a good idea to switch meds? If so, should I use a carbon filter for a day or so to get the old med out (my sponge filters are bright green, do I need to change those too?). Or should I leave the m.g. in and add another? Has anyone had better success with a certain brand or type of ich med?
