That was the same conclusion that I came to as well, however I thought that the Paraguard would have prevented the Purple Tang from contracting the Ich.

I have been dosing Paraguard daily for the past 2 weeks prior to the introduction of the newly caught fish.

Would 6 weeks of Hypo be enough? Or should I go 8 weeks?
