Ick and pl*co

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+)

Apparently to write the complete name, it will attract bad luck to your own
pl*co....

We'll see what happens.. Due to an algae outbreak, my buttikoferi,
leporinus, and pleco are all living in the 38.

So far they all get along fine. The koferi occasionally chases the
pleco when the lights are on, but never for more than a minute. The lep
hides out a lot (plenty of swimming areas behind cover) but has no
qualms about coming out during feeding time. The koferi and lep have
had no issues swimming close to each other during feeding time. Once
feeding is done though, it's back to the cover for the most part.

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?
