As the ick has been steadily gaining ground and getting worse. I've uped the dose of herbtana to see if that helps. So far I've had no results with it. I haven't lost any fish yet but it's getting to the point that I'm in need of treating it. I had ick in the 175 off and on but between the cleaner wrasse and shrimps I would never see more than 6 spots on the powder blue. ( previous one lost shortly after the upgrade) Neal I thought you were a copper fan.

I'm dealing with ich on my 2 heniocus, and up my temp to 82 f, ich is going down, hasn't spread, I pick up a bottle of Herbtana and Kordon Ich attack, have tried medication yet, it I see any on my other fish, then I will medicate, so just adding more garlic into food. It just showed up 2 days ago. The heniocus had ich in my QT, and cupermine them for 3 weeks. Then I transfer to display tank on Feb 14.

i use copper in my quarantines because hypo requires such a long treatment process.
plus hypo doesn't work against marine velvet which can sometimes come in on shipments

asylumdown - do you have a link to the scientific papers that state that there is a hypo resistant ich?
i would like to read up on it if possible thanks btw, Herbtana is not a treatment - it is an immune booster. It does not kill ich..just increases the chance of the fish to fight it off. so it will not help eliminate the ich in your system
