Lets try this No Ich stuff

Don't forget that even 72 days of fallow and diligent quarantine only gives you 99.9% probability that your system is ich free. There is always a tiny risk left that is somehow found a way in.

100% certainty exists only in a tank filled with bleach.

Everything you do needs to be evaluated risk versus reward. I consider a 99.9% probability of being ich free (only a 1 in a 1000 chance of failure) pretty good odds, considering all the other unknowns and intricacies of this hobby that cause things to go wrong. Without being proactive (such as TTM for fish, fallow period for everything else that is wet) your odds of being ich free significantly diminish.

Fwiw I'm having good luck with a combo of the anti parasite caviar cp pellets and ginger in every feeding. I have 2 tangs and one showed signs of white spots 2 days ago. Today he is spot free. I also increased temp to 83. Could all just be coincidence though but I'll still continue to feed this way.

Yeah! I had great success getting rid of ich by dancing naked around the tank while chanting. :hmm5:

Do not increase temperature if there is a perspective parasite as it decreases oxygen in the water.

My wife would appreciate that! The fish, not so much.

Upsetting the fish a bit is fine as long as the ich parasites get scared to death
