Your right....to a point. I don't think ich is particularly deadly and I think a lot of fish that supposedly die from Ich actually die from Marine Velvet, Ich just happens to be the more visible (they can have both at the same time, marine velvet is very stressful) and so it gets blamed.
Doofus arrived here with Marine Velvet and ich and without being quarantined, not only would of died but would of taken the other fish with him, including my regal angel. I am a firm believer in quarantine....but an ich free tank is just a side benefit
