That's just another proof that ick don't really go away. It just stay at a low level of infection on the gills and waits for the proper moment to multiply and infect more.
I have recently read of someone not having ick for 3 years and after a tank move lost a lot of fish to the ick, although there was nothing new added, just the stress of moving.
This does not happen when ick is properly treated from the begining and really gone from the tank.

Is there anything I can do? pics were not possible as he darts around very quickly and is camera shy.
