Loaches, corys, live plants and ich(k)......

I've been reading for the last 2 days about ich(k). My last post I mentioned that my 2 smallest loaches have been squabbling a bit and now I think they are showing signs of ich. I'm not sure though, the spots are very dull, not a bright white so I was wondering if this could be just from them fighting? No other fish in the tank has any signs at all. The 2 little clowns are still active as ever, no heavy breathing and a very good appetite. Now, if I do have ich my question would be, " Since I have loached, corys and live plants, can I treat with the salt method and be ok?" Should I take the plants out? I have raised the tank to 82 over the past couple days in case I should start putting the salt in. My other question is, " should I do the "ich treatment" anyways just in case?"

Thanks everyone.

It doesn't look puffy, more like transparent spots on the tail and I can see 1 white spot on the top fin. I wish I had my digital camera here.
Unfortunately I don't have a hospital tank. Would the plants be ok in a bucket of tank water?

From what I have read and researched, I have vallisneria, anubia and bacopa.
I have uprooted once before and it did take a little to get them growing again but they were ok. Are these variations ok with the salt or should I take them out?
