ICH treatment from a beginner

[kryptonian]

Hello, I am new to the hobby, and this is my first time treating this. I have 3 platys, 2 african dwarf frogs, 2 shrimp, and 3 snails. the bigger platty started with the white dots on his tail, I have increased the temp to about 82, will go up to 84 soon, and I added aquarium salt. I have a bigger tank that I had planned to use once I had a cycle completed on it. would it be safe to move the everything but the platys without bringing the ICH to a new tank?

so one day after I increased the temp to 82-83 degrees, and added salt the white dots on the fin are gone and Chester is more active now. was this ICH? I heard of a form of ICH that is caused by stress, could it have been that? i was not able to get a before pic, but this is the after pic.

Very interesting, I can’t say for sure but it could of very well been “stress ich”. I’m glad it cleared up so fast but I’d still keep a close eye on it for awhile.

Yeah definitely monitoring this. he is still active so that's good. will keep you updated.

I had a sunset platy with what looked exactly like ich (no other fish had any) a few weeks ago. Treated with ich-x and it resolved in a few days. A couple weeks later the same platy was laying towards the bottom, not acting well, and had what may have been columnaris (patchy layer on one side). Treated him with Kanaplex (fed it to him for a few days) and that also resolved. He seems to be doing well now. This is the first time I used that in food instead of the water, and I will definitely do that in the future (as long as I can get the fish to eat it).
