IME QT tanks are death traps, I have lost 7 fish QT and have never lost a fish to ick. Anthony gave me the best advice, just let the fish deal with it and let them build a natural immunity to it. My fish were coveredd in ich, including a really badly infected blue tang. I fed them garlic, greens, 4 cleaner shrimp and high water quality. My fish got rid of the ich in 2 weeks and havent had any of it back. In the wild they obviously dont have copper or hyposalinity, so they relie on biological cleaners, such as shrimp, wrasses, gobies, and some types of angels, butterflys etc. Keep up water quality, dont QT him and feed lots of garlic and and a varied diet with lots of greens.
