Everything I've read about Ich online (at Marine Depot and wetwebmedia mostly) say to drop the
salinity to 1.009 for a month, use garlic, and wait it out.
I do wish I'd seen this in the quarantine tank, but honestly I don't think the light is good enough over it to show subtle details. I certainly spent enough time watching them while they were in it. (Yes, I need to find room in a better location for quarantine, but in the meantime...) The two fish have never been depressed or flashing. I knew putting them in the big tank could be risky if... But I've planned it as a
FOWLR, and while I eventually do want to try
GSPs and zoas and stuff fragged from my sps tank, thats not the focus, the Coral Beauty and the other fish will be the focus.
I am assuming (when I'm not desperately depressed and anxious, anyway) that the hypo will work and the fish will be OK. I am assuming that I've slowed down, if not killed my cycle totally and I will probably have to be hyper vigilant about parameters. I am assuming I've totally killed whatever pods and hitchhikers I had from the
live rock and that I'll have to reseed it.
Anything I've missed? And/or have I screwed up totally and irretrievably?
