Help treating ich in a 30 gallon freshwater aquarium?
I have a 30 gallon tropical freshwater aquarium with the following inhabitants 8 Zebra Danios 4 Otocinclus Cats 2 Boesemani Rainbowfish 8 Neon TetrasI put the neons in yesterday. They were healthy at the pet store and had been at the pet store for about two weeks, so they survived shipping well , but this morning I noticed one or two white bumps on each of the neons. I examined all the other fish carefully especially the rainbows... they cost $12 each but did not see any signs of ich on them.I REALLY want to nip this in the bud before any of my other fish get infected. So today I did a 25% water change, turned off my carbon filter and lights, started slowly raising the temperature from 75 F I'll get to 85 F in a few days , and added a Malachite Green treatment. As none of the other fish in the tank are infected, I only added the recommended dosage for tetras which is half the recommended dosage for any other fish .So how to proceed from here? Should I start doing daily water changes? In what percentage? Should I continue adding a tetra sized dose of Malachite Green daily without water changes? The instructions didn't specify...
