I have been soaking my food in Garlic as part of my daily routine. I also have a UV sterilizer too (now unplugged as Herbatana says to unplug it while dosing). Hopefully thats enough.

My tank was fine and Ich free until my Blue hippo tang went on a field trip outside the tank, I rescued him, but within a day he had Ich bad, within 3 days the Ich had spread to 3 more fish : ( So I just started dosing Herbatana in my reef tank and crossing my fingers. I still may try to pull out any of the infected fish that I can and put them in QT and dose copper, but I seriously doubt I will be able to catch any of them.
