Title says it all. I live in the Valencia area and about 4 days ago my hippo tang showed signs of getting ick. I think it's because I stated getting all my minerals in their proper ranges, and I ended up boosting my alkalinity from 1.7 to 2.5 in about 1.5 days. Whether that's the reason or not, he's got the ick. I've started using some selcon and vita-chem, and I might start using garlic, because I've read that it MAY help although it's never been proven. I wanted to have this herbal supplement on hand and give it a try as well. Maybe alternate between medications as needed. If anybody has used Microbelift Herbtana before and/or knows where to get it, it would be much appreciated.
On a second note, my sailfin tang had ick for about a day and it's gone already. No other fishes have ick and no other inverts or corals show signs of distress; just my hippo tang.
Thanks, Derek
