Hello, my first post!
I just recently set up my 30 gallon tank after sitting in my garage for 8 years. Since I am an impatient person, I set up my tank quickly, so I have about 20 fish and various plants. I have already been struggling with certain fish getting ick. I've lost a few fish already trying to treat them in a seperate one gallon tank. The medicine I use, claims it cures it in 2 days with one drop per gallon, but so far it seems to do not much. I've mistakenly put some of them back in my tank only to see it get worse and eventually die. Most of my fish are fine, but so far I have lost 2 clown loaches, 2 bala sharks, 1 silver dollar, and a pictus cat to ick . Now I have 2 "new" clown loaches, 1 bumblebee gobie, and a pitbull pleco that have ick, that just seem impossible to cure :? . Anyone know any good methods and medicine brands to use?
