One of my oscars has ick. I dont know what to do because i dont have any quarantine tanks and also i have another oscar in the same tank.

how sure are u it is ich and not HLLE? this is common in oscars and can start out small and sorta sand-like, then get worse.
raising the temp means ich grows faster and dies faster. they dont get enough of a life span to breed after a while and eventually die out from no one producing the next generation, and their relatives being siphoned out. xx
