Just discovered ick

[fishykisses]

Hi all...

I have a very large tank that has ick now...it's 96G and i'm almost positive it's the clown loaches that brought it in.
I'm off to the store soon to get meds, i just wanted to know if anyone has treated a tank as large as this one and what did you use?
I'm not flush with cash but i'll do what i have to to get my babies healthy again.

Turn temp up to 30, and cover tank with a blanket good luck.

As wilder said - I also used interpet number 6.

Good luck

the heat was already at 80 so i turned it up and it's at 82 now and i've added maracide...and turned the lights off.
Thanks, i'll let you all know how it's going, i hope it won't affect the pregnant molly's that are secluded in the breeding boxes... if they give birth will it hurt the fry?
