Two of my tetras look like they're developing ick... they have a few white speckles on their bodies, but the others in their school don't, nor do any of the other fish in the tank. I was planning on starting the tank on medication to treat the ick, but it says I'm supposed to remove the filter while I do this.
Will removing the filter effect the water parameters? The tank is fully cycled, and I don't want anything to hurt that. Should I keep the filter in a separate bowl of water while I treat the tank? Thanks!
