![]() Sometimes the fish get sand stuck to them and it can look like ick. Is the spot still there? Some of my dummies, especially my Formosa whos always digging in the sand, (even the clowns) will make you panic for a second thinking they have ick when its really just sand. Any chance it could be sand like my guy below?
A lot of people garlic soak the fish food before they feed it. You could try that. ![]() |

![]() The spot vanished. I havn't treated with anything and plan on just watching them for the time being. I added a fireshrimp to my DT (my wife and kids wanted something in there) seems to be having a good time.
Saw the clowns sleeping yesterday morning, for a sec I thought they were sick. As soon as the lights were on there were back to normal. Thanks for the replys Jesse |

For Ick and Flukes I recommend Hyposalinity as your not poisoning the fish with copper. It is important that you have an accurate refractometer. If the water is not at the correct salinity for treatment it will not be effective. Cheers, Tim
