Denise T Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 My fish had ick. Im not sure if this is still ick or something else. Not sure if I need to do another ick treatment or just salt and high temps. Or just do a maracyn treatment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Your picture quality not good enough to tell if it's ich it could be epistylis here's how you tell the two apart if it's ich treat with ick X and aquarium salt as ich causes massive electrolyte loss and the salt adds back in essential electrolytes slowly raise the temperature to 82 that will speed up the life cycle of ich if it's epistylis you want to treat with a broad spectrum antibiotic such as maracyn2 in food and aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 1 gallon as epistylis feeds of of the gram negative bacteria on the skin of your fish and spreads more quickly at higher temperatures @Denise T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
