My tank is stuck w ich

[drewdb]

Hello R2R,
I’ve had a IM20 tank for about 3 months now, and it’s cycled and everything. I haven’t had a problem w my anemones, corals, or inverts, but when it comes to fish I’ve had trouble keeping them alive. They keep getting ich, and they still die after treatment. Is there any recommendations on how to keep my fish alive?

Are you treating fish in a QT system, and are you going 90 days fallow after removing all fish from your DT. Even if your fish don;t have Ick initially, if you aren't going 90 days fallow they will get it because it is still in your tank.

The best way to eradicate ich is to treat all fish for 30 days in a quarantine tank with copper power at 2.0ppm and then leave your main tank without fish for a minimum of 76 days.
