I have two baby platys a molly and a algae eater in my 20 gallon tank, and I was looking at my ick treatment. Heaven forbid they get ick, but...it says not to use on baby fish, how old are they considered babies? These two are at least 4 and 6 months old. Are they too young to use my ick treatment on them? Thanks :)
 
I have used it on fish younger, even used it with fry in the tank, i never knew this so just glad mine are ok if thats the case, im just going to read my whitespot instructions again..

Got it here now, and i cant see anywhere where it says not to use on fry.. unless im missing summat lol..

JUst read up and it seems fry are sensitive to it and it may cause them harm..

Mine says " Do not use on baby fish, tetras, or scaleless fish"
Maybe it depends on the brand? Who knows hah
