Some time between Saturday and last night, the last of the ich cysts disappeared on my clown loach. The rest of the fish have been clean for about a week. I've been treating with heat, and a bit of sea salt--no meds. Needless to say, I'm thrilled. I want to continue the stocking process, but will hold off and keep the temp. up for two more weeks as suggested to kill off any critters that are still in the water. All the fish seem happy and active...especially after water changes. So I'm happy.
...Now if I could only figure out what happened to that rubberlip pleco. I haven't seen him for about a week. He is tiny: about 1 1/2 inches. It is possible he died and was eaten, but I can't find any remains whatsoever. I moved absolutely everything last night and couldn't find him. I do not have any hollow decorations. So I'm baffled. Some might remember that I had a clown loach similarly disappear about a month ago. After I had moved everything, and given up hope, he mysteriously reappeard one day, totally covered with ich cysts. I'm hoping the same happens with the pleco (except for the ich part), but I honestly can't figure out where he could be if he's still in there. ...and I'm smart. Honest.
