Hi
I have a male halfmoon betta in a 5.5 gl tank and had added a zebra snail 6 weeks ago to help with the algae. I didn't realize that my tank didn't have enough algae for the snail and the last few days it hasn't moved much. I have some algae wafers coming in about a hour so that should help. What I also noticed now that I can see it better is that he has 3 tiny white spots on the shell. I also carefully inspected my Betta and he has a bit of white on his tail fins. If this is ICK I have some of the API Ick cure coming as well. My question is should I take either or both out to quarrantine and treat while I treat the tank separately. I was planning on a deep clean of the tank to also rearrange things better for the snail. Any help would be appreciated.
