![]() Ok did as directed but today he looks worse. the ick is very prominent and he is covered. He won't eat either. However, he continues to swim around the tank but has slowed down.
Today will be the make or break night. I'll check on him in the morning before work and we'll see where he is at. It probably is my handle that is cursing it |

![]() PBTs (Powder Blue) are ick magnets. This is very well known.
So at this point, if it is not eating, you have to take him out and place him into a quarantine tank. If you don't have one, or don't know how to set it up, look here. Since it is covered with ick, and is in a QT, use 3/4 of the recommended dose of copper. Make sure you monitor ammonia levels, as you will have to do water changes ever other day or so. |

![]() Keep feeding your display with garlic and Selcon. In my 72 gallon I use the top line on
the dropper at least you want to keep everyone else's immune system strong. I use Selcon almost daily. I alway's serve one meal per day with lot's of vitamins soaked in. +1 on getting him out of their.. ASAP |

![]() I feed garlic daily as well as I feed mostly frozen food and have never seen any sigh of Ick with my fish. Hope he gets better.
