Here's one of the brainstorms from one of the articles you provided:

If an aquarium has no fish in it, and there are no additions of fish, or anything else that could be carrying trophonts, tomonts, tomites or theronts for a period of 6 weeks or longer, all parasites will have died. An aquarium such as this is an obvious exception to "Ich" always being present.

An aquarium without fish won't have ich? Who knew?

I believe people all too often look at fish care too clinically, you have to remember, they are people too. I have a cold right now. I don't have it because I was introduced to a new environment that contained the flu virus. I caught this through trying to maintain a nightowl lifestyle while getting up for work extremely early (IMO). I let my immune system weaken, my defenses went down and voila! summer cold.

Bullet, I always appreciate advice, that's why I'm here, but don't TELL me I'm wrong, SUGGEST you know an alternative. Take a look at the tone of the other regular posters and you'll see how we can all disagree politely,
