I have a percula clown who's had his share of parasites. Before I used to think that when I find him covered with white spots all over, then 2 hours later, the white spots are gone, that he was always getting cleaned by my cleaner shrimps. THen reading up more on "ich" I read that when the parasite mature, they fall off of the fish. Made me think that it is more likely that the parasites mature and fall than being picked off by the cleaner shrimps.
Now i obvioulsy have the "ich" in my tank, which have recently claimed the life of my Kole Tang.
Here's the question: How likely is the UV sterilizer that I ordered (due to come in next week) to help this "ich" situation? Will I see an improvement? Has anyone had any experience with UV sterilizers? and has it been helpful? Has it shown an improvement?
If u ask me about my water parameters, they have been consistently ok, if not near perfect. I've only had one low reading of ammonia which has been corrected by a water change.
I obviously can't treat my main tank as I have a considerable amount of inverts in them.
