you are wrong It's possible to erradicate ich from a tank if you understand the life cycle of marine ich.

mandarin and wrasse have thick mucus layer and they frequently shred their mucus layer. That's why they seem to be hard to get ich. Hard, but not impossible.

Thanks for correcting me I actually thought that its like a part of the ecosystem like cyanobacteria and hence they persists even after they are eradicated with the "fishless for 8 weeks" method. Like you know, life always finds its way :P

Anyway, so since my tank has ich (I am pretty sure a green clown goby bought it in the system -__-), if I keep the fishes healthy, they shouldn't have problem right?

And about the sixlines, will it heal itself over time? I hear mixed reviews on the internet and hence was looking if someone has a similar experience.
