I was under the impression that all fish have ich present in them at all times.... no matter what you do. The variable is wether or not they are stong/stress free enough to not let it come out and be active if you will. Am I wrong in thinking that?

Now, I have recently bought a Regal Tang knowing full well that they are prone to ich. I have 3 cleaner shrimp (Fire) and am hoping that if ich does come out that the shrimp will keep it at bay. Am I wrong in hoping for this to be the case, or on the right track? If I'm on the right track, I say buy some cleaner shrimp... cool addition. Either way actually, cool addition, most people that see my tank have the shrimp as one of their favorites!
