Hey Jim,
I have had ich in a couple of my tanks. Certain fish are ich magnets. I worked in a shop that had a black tang, that would get ich at the slightest bit of stress. In my experience, reduce the stress, and the ich goes away. I have never lost a fish to ich, and I have never treated for ich. Do a few water changes, and make sure your parameters are wher they should be. Try the garlic, but stay away from the other medications. No knowing what longterm effects it will have on your tank.
Mike
