Help - 1 fish has ICH

Hi - I have a 29g in our dental office with 30 lbs lr, 2 inches ls, 2 perc clowns, 1 firefish and 1 green clown goby who now is displaying ICH. I also have hermits, snails, a shrimp, a brain coral, frogspawn and some zoos.

I DO NOT have a QT tank - I know, I know, I've learned my lesson. But what do I do now? I panicked and went to the lfs to get Kick0Ich by Ruby Reef, so I've started that today. I will also start with fresh crushed garlic tomorrow. What else can I do? I don't think I could even catch the fish to QT him w/o taking down the entire tank, which would be close to impossible given its location. Unfortunately, I started the tank and THEN found this forum and others and am learning a lot. Right now I just want to save my clown goby and more importantly, try to catch the ICH before the others get it. I don't htink I can do hyposalinity or copper because of what's in my tank, so will I be able to battle this just with the meds and garlic? Please give any advice.... thanks!
 
MrsG, I have successfully treated my clowns' ich with that Blue Lagoon medicated food. A friend/enthusiast had told me about it. I treated right away and I got quick results. (i learned the hard way too) I originally got it at www.premiumauatics.com.
Sounds like you're doing a great thing, hope everything works out!
