Any new treatments for Ich?

[LarryZ]

Hey Everyone,

I posted this in another thread but was wondering if there is anything new in treating ich. I bought a six line wrasse four weeks ago and quarantined it for four weeks and everything looked good so I moved it to the display tank yesterday. Then today I notice a white nodule on its pectoral fin which looks suspiciously like ich.

I was just wondering if there is a new treatment I am not aware of or is it still the standard move all fish to quarantine and treat with copper and leave display tank fishless for 90 days to let all of the cysts cycle through? I've done it before but just hoping...

Thanks.

So it was just a piece of sand on it's pectoral fin and if fell off. My lovely wife kept insisting that's what it was and I kept telling her she was wrong. To my relief she was right. Bad thing is I'm never going to hear the end of it. lol

I'd rather admit I was wrong then deal with removing all fish, treating & running the tank fishless for 76 days. I've had to do this & it wasn't fun. Congratulations on the good luck.
