I am home from the weekend for college and I just discovered my fish had ich...I came on here immediately to look for what to do and i read an article by daveedka here:

and I think im going to go with the salt treatment...if anyone disagrees please tell me...i have a 29 gallon with 2 angelfish, a molly, a synodontus eupterus, and a glass catfish...but, my main question i need answered ASAP is...
How often do you add salt...do i just add it once for the treatment period or every day or every week or every other day?? Please help me someone! Oh, and one more question...do i add one teaspoon at a time by 1/4 tsp. per hour, or do i add the total amount of (1 tsp * 29 gal. = 29 tsp.) in 1/4 amount per hour? sorry, its kind of confusing...but the main thing i need help with is how many times do i add the salt to the tank???
Sorry for another ich thread but i read the article and 2 other ones on www.aquarticles.com and couldnt find my answer, and i leave to go back to college tomorrow, so i need to know exactly whats going on to tell my girlfriend who takes care of my tank!! Thanks for any help...it would be greatly appreciated!!
