I talked to somethingfishy today regarding the outbreak I found in my 90gal.

Could this be a problem I had a few months ago still lingering or is each outbreak different each time? I have treated with everything on the shelves before.

My salinity was at 1.026 (water evaporated) before I just changed out 5gal. tank water with water at 0.000. Did a recheck on it and it came down .002. Is this the right speed for bringing the salinity down or should it go faster or slower? Any other ideas?

I have always used garlic to soak their food in.

I don't get it. <<<POSTED YESTERDAY IN THE WRONG PLACE!!!

TODAY 10/07/04

Woke up this morning to find all of my fish just COVERED with ich. I don't think I have time for the hypo-salinity treatment. What is one to do???? I have a puffer and LR so I don't think copper is such a great idea. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!
