So i called the lfs I bought the fish from and they tell me they always qt their fish and that none of their clowns have ich. He told me the ich could have come in on my corals. My tank has been fish free for 3 months so wouldnt all ich have died by then? If not and I qt my fish and medicate wont the ich still be present in my main tank as it has (supposedly) for the 3 months its been running. How would I get rid of the ich from my main tank if its on my corals?

I will probably be corrected, being a newbie myself but isnt ich a FISH bug. I dont think it would live in liverock or corals, but if I am wrong someone will speek up.

Thats what I thought but the store tells me there is no way their fish had it. And I have not had any fish in my tank since I started it 3 months ago. I also havent had any inverts for 2 weeks.

I know this is part of the ich cycle that it falls off and becomes free swimming but the ich developed in the evening yesterday. Now I woke up and there is no more ich on the fish the one fish that was the first to have it has only like 1 speck left. Could the life cycle of Ich be that fast? Or was this not ich at all? I have no idea anymore
