I agree with @Reefing Madness Do you have a QT? Few options here... Easiest option is copper. Blue hippos don't so we'll in CP so that's out. I like to use copper power and the Hanna checker. You can also use hypo or TTM, which can be more difficult than copper. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/ich-cryptocaryon-irritans.191226/ You will want to treat all of your fish in QT and allow your DT to be fallow for 76 days.
