You can also go to the grocery store and purchase garlic puree. I used that and just mixed a bit in with their food. As long as they are eating, they will be fine. Most smaller fish are fairly immune to ich all ready so that explains why they are all alive. Foxface are also very tough fish and will survive no problem. It is really tangs, angels, etc. that have a harder time fighting it off. Just keep them eating. If they are not, then it is time to move them as soon as possible, if you can....
A bottle trap tends to work if you need to catch a fish. Cut the back end off a gallon jug, poke a couple holes through the end piece and the jug and put a rod through it. I use acrylic rod. That allows the cut off piece to swivel open and closed. Leave the trap in there for a day without touching it. Next day put some mysis in there and eventually fish will swim in there and that's when you swivel the trap shut. It took me 5 minutes to build one and I caught the fish I wanted out in about a day.
