I have been treating my tank for 2 weeks (Ick). All teh fishes are now clear
out but my pl*co still covered in ick. I was planning to do a big water
change tomorrow and stop medicating the tank.....I had just a decesed fish
(tetra neon) all the rest seems to be just fine. I am not sure waht to
do....I dont want to continue with medication (Rid Ick+)



I buy all my fish through the internet. They are delivered overnight
by Air Express. I bought 7 Clown Loaches all covered with Ich. I too
treated them in my 75 gallon tank with Rid Ick+. Only two survived.

I am surprised that your plecos have ich. I have lost 3 o4 four that
just never seemed hardy, but never ich.

I know Rid Ick+ reccommends a water change after the first cycle and
continuing. Did you remove the charcoal from your filter?
