Default re ich

as far as i have read, ICH is more of a nuisance more than a killer
obviously, if it is affecting the gills it becomes more serious
However, this could be marine velvet. Which is deadly and could end up killling your entire tank if you don't deal with this very quickly, if it is in fact marine velvet.
i lost an entire tank to velvet, thinking that it was ick. the old tank was dead with 10 days.
just my 2 cents worth..
Whatever it is, good luck with it.

and that is interesting about the light thing and ich..didn't know that
