According to Dave's article about Ich, he recommends 2tsp per gallon of water... a tsp is 5ml.... so in a 10gal tank that is 100ml, right?

I rescued a betta from wal mart who has EXTREME ich... so i figure high temp and salt for a few days and see what is going on, if it looks good gonna just continue it for 2week period. if not maybe, as a last resort to save fish, use a malachite green/formalin treatment.

Let me know if my math is right, ty
 
yeah, he says between 1tsp to 3tsp.. recommending 2tsp to start out with, so i figure it wont hurt if missing one gallon due to gravel/decorations.... not to mention it is a REALLY BAD case of ich.

or bad idea?
