boy 2 triggers is a lot, even in a 120.
Lucky you. Several Months ago, we lost a clown trigger, a grouper, 2 angelfish, a damzel and gobey all to ick (now fixed with UV filter) except for the clown trigger.Holy smokes! Sorry to hear about that Aaron. That's some serious dollar lost there and some very very nice fish. Was the trigger aggressive towards the Grouper, or the other fish?
Was the trigger aggressive towards the Grouper, or the other fish?Not towards the grouper. But come to think of it, The clown trigger ate the Gobey several days after we got him ...I have never seen a Gobey swim so fast!
Keep treating for the recommended duration, even
after symptoms are gone.I second that, many novices out there will look at the spots gone and say "oh cool, no more Ick" but this is where you have to keep treating because like Jeff says, this is where you actually get to extract revenge on the ick parasites, so continue your treatments for a bit after the directions, perhaps a week would do it. Don't forget to read the labels and warnings for scaleless fish like some loaches and sensitive fish like some tetras (rummy, cardinal, and neons come to mind here).
