Help!! Ich!!

[TaTtOo]

I have been following forums here and on RC for quite some time now, although I am not even close to being a reef or ich (I hate even saying that word) expert, I have had some dealings with ich in my reef tank. I have tried Hypo and copper in my QT and have had sucess with both, BUT, this has not stopped tich from reoccurring. The best success I have had in dealing with this problem has been by simply adding a bottle of stress coat (following the proper dosage instructions) or slime coating to the tank EVERYTIME I added a new fish. I have found that this helps the fish adjust or become immune to ich (or something). Ever since I started doing this (about 10 months ago) I have not had an outbreak since.

This is just my $.02, and my experience, might be worth a shot. Its a better option than removeing all of the fish for 6-8 weeks for hypo and copper.

Thanks
