ok i had bought on june 20th a topfin 20 gallon kit along with two fire red gouramis. the kit came with enough bio set up to supposedly set up the nitrogen cycle and the next weekend bought 2 silver hatchet fish and 2 ottos (dads idea not mine). but before the fish were added one of my gouramis was not acting normal and noticed white spots. i knew it was ich and decided to raise the temp to 82. it went away and i got the 4 fish. following tuesday i got a dojo loach which i named mojo. then the next day he has this big white spot on his little forhead. and i also did a 25 % water change because the "instant setup" made the ammonia spike up. the next day mojo, the ottos and a hatchet had presence of ich. so we went to the pet store and bought nox-ich, 2nd day we used it both ottos died (suspect starvation) and now i am worried for my fishes life. here are their status
temp: 83 f
ph: 7
ammonia: .02
ying, fire red dwarf gourami- clean
yang, powder blue dwarf gourami-ich, moderate
other fire red died
ottos are dead
mojo, dojo/weather loach- whitespot on head and slight ich
piscis 1, silver hatchet-ich, heavy
piscis 2, silver hatchet- ich, extreme
3 ghost shrimps dubbed the 3 cablleros (sp)-clean
please help i dont want them to die! and one last thing, is this my dads fault? (he got the first 2 gouramis, the ottos and told me not to add more bacteris starter)
