Using the Temp Treatment and Fish Combatibility

[kenor33]

Could anyone give me thoughts on whether Oscars, Tin-foils, and a Pleco can handle the above 86 degree treatment. I have started raising the temp but its not to late to stop if 1 or more of these can't handle it. I worked on my large gravel last weekend changing over to smaller and I guess I stressed one of them. I saw a few tiny dots on Clydes side fins and want to jump on this quik without meds if possible incase I made them get ich thanks

They can handle it. Be sure and lower the water level so there is splashing of the filter return, and/or get a bubble wand. Treat for about 4-5 days after you see the last white spot, and you should be in the clear. Very effective treatment, IME.
