If you have ich, it will kill your fish and any others you add to the tank. Getting rid of the ich should be your #1 priority. There are many methods to accomplish this, you need to read the "have ich looky here" thread listed at the top of the new to the hobby forum. There are a lot of things that could be adding to your algae problem: phosphates, lighting durations, filter media not being changed every two or three days, bio-balls if there are any in your we/dry filter.....
