I took out all fishTreated with Cuprimine copper) and put them in QT for 6 weeks put them back in the tank and have Quartined everything since (even treated Q tank so it wouldnt come back) Well today i find about a 8-10 lil white spots on the blue ring angel. Im so frustrated!!!!

Sometimes its hard to eradicate it, even through copper and fallow stages. Keep your fish well fed, they might be the last spots you see.

I have three Tangs and I have been lucky enough not to have had ICH maybe you have stray voltage in your tank, a constant current would pis off any fish, do you have a ground probe? or looked to see if it's still in the water?

 

[joeyt66]

Nope no stray voltage either.(atleast i dont get zapped when i put my hand in there ) Even if there was a stray voltage ich should not be present in the tank exspecially after 6 weeks of no host (fish )

I tried copper, didn't work for me. Hyposalinity worked the best, I had three angels (emperor, queen and gray) they all had ich pretty bad. Hypoed them to 1.009 SG for about 6 weeks, left the display fishless, and put them back in, never saw spots again.
