How Long should I treat Ich?

[Myka]

Personally, in my 18 yrs of reef keeping I have yet to lose a fish to Ich. Then you read other people's accounts and they lose half a tank or a whole tank full of fish to Ich. What's the difference? I really don't know.

I agree with Daniella that reef-safe Ich products are essentially a joke and not very effective.

I also refuse to treat a fish with Cupramine. The damaging dose compared to the treatment dose is way too close in my opinion, and the damage it can cause is irreversible and partially unknown. When freshwater dips and hyposalinity can achieve the same results, why medicate?
