Ich, Plants Salt, Temp, Malachite Green

[livingword26]

Thanks for all the input. I have put my mosses in vases, and I set up a 5.5 gallon tank for the rest of the plants. I did a 35% water change and put some good carbon in. Raising temp and adding salt.

That is s a great idea (and a 'duh' moment for me). As fumbler with plants, I have a question. Will a window without direct sun also keep the plants happy during this traumatic phase? In other words, its a dim window better for them than ich treatment?

FYI, after bad experiences with salt in the past, I use Ric-Ich and more than the normal darkness time, as well as removing carbon and higher heat.

What do you mean darkness time? Ich isn't affected by light.

This is the best treatment I have ever used
