You may never get completely "over the ich"..but it is not as gloomy as you make it sound. It will remain in your system for as long as fish remain in your system and you may never see any symptoms again. It is my experience that certain types of fish are quite fine in this situation. Provided you stay away from Acanthuras tangs, the ich may never be a problem again...

As someone else already mentioned...the only sure way to eliminate it completely is to remove all fish from the tank for (12 weeks?), and treat/QT any fish that is going into the tank.
