I never noticed much change with the RubyRed Kick-Ich...
Couple options are:
Start soaking food in garlic to help immune system.
Try using the Kick-Ich as well.
Do you use a UV light? I recommend one. I had one outbreak of Ich early on. No troubles now. I figure it was brought on by stress. I do use a UV light to be safe.
I also read that with cleaner fish and shrimp, Some other members stated they removed the parasites. I would not know from experience.
I would setup and treat with Copper in a QT tank personally and leave the tank fallow for several weeks. Also while in QT treat with Hypo salinity. 1.010 SG
Good Luck

Hey Kris,
I use a uv light [gamma 8 watt] I also have a cleaner wrasse and a cleaner shrimp in there. the hippo tang looks the worse. my blond naso tang had it and i guess he gave it to everybody. i would have to take all the fish out and treat them together in QT ? i will have to rip apart my whole tank to get them out and wouldn't that just stress them out more? I do have soft corals and misc hermit's and snail's in there as well. what to do?
