About three days ago we noticed some ich spots on our goldie's tail so we immediately moved him to a 10 gal quarantine tank so as not to infect our other two goldies. (was this an okay thing to do or should we have left him in the 55 gal tank?) This morning I noticed some brownish spots on his tail that weren't there before. Any one have any idea what this may be. His tank is completely cycled and I have been checking the water levels every day since we moved him. (Amonia 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 5.0ppm). Also, how long should we treat him for ich if we no longer see white spots? Thanks!! P.S. He is very active and has a healthy appetite.
