dont worry about the temp. their immune system will take care of the rest. just keep
the temp steady, dont let it drop suddenly that is what brings on ich. Ingrid

Thanks Ingrid,
Looks like I should treat at nights just before I turn the lights off so
the high light levels won't deactivate the malachite green. Does the 3
days treatment assume warm water? My tank is probably in the high 60's. I
think I'll treat for 3 nights, and hook up the Vortex filter next weekend
to clean up any protozoas still swimming around.

The fish look much happier (and definitely hungrier!) just from their salt dip.

Best regards,
Bob
