This is the UV I have myself (and had success controlling ich with):
http://www.customaquatic.com/estore/...ct=UV-AUA00067 Your tank is bigger than the one I ran this on myself so you might want to look at a higher wattage (although the manufacturers website seems to suggest it can be used as a sterilizer on SW tanks up to 350gal. More info here - http://www.aquaultraviolet.com/produ...classic/57watt ). Bigger ones seem to double up on the lamps so 80w is really 2 40w units, 114 is really 2 57w units and so on.

He's still Ichy....all my fish are ichy even my mandarins but they seem to be all coping with it, poor things. Anthony sent me up a uv sterilizer but I haven't had the time or patience to figure out how to hook it up yet

Anthony is such a nice guy. He was lending his UV for me too. It is very easy to set it up, but you need to rinse it well first, I think Anthony never rinsed his

My observations of ich
1 Ich does not appear to be fatal. My fish have 0 tolerance for ich, having gone for many years in an ich free enviroment. Doofus for nearly 6 yrs, mandarins for 5 yrs, copperband for 4+ yrs and harry the hawkfish for 3 yrs. At one point a few weeks ago Doofus was nearly white he was covered so badly, right now he is in a relatively quiet time, his body just looks like the milky way 2 Garlic does not work to get rid of ich 3 6 weeks is not long enough to build up immunity
