Ich needs fish to live and reproduce with out them they will just die out.
I've heard some people say that they got an ich outbreak in thier tank cuz the temp went up or down drastically due to equipment failure but that's only because the ich was already there to begin with...


This is true, I think I said pretty much every tank, so I realize you could have an ICH free tank.

Sorry for the confusion.

I'd just like to thank everyone that replied. The fish are eating aggressively now. Everything from the cyclopeeze (thanks for the suggestion ShrimSkin) brine shrimp to mysis shrimp. Also, thanks to fishtime for suggesting the garlic extract. I picked up a bottle at Ocean Aquatics and it's worked wonders. I also believe that they are completely healthy. Both are very active, have good colour, and appear quite happy. They appear to have found a nice little hollow in one of the live rocks and have been cleaning it daily. Thanks again for the help.
