Refer back to my post with the link to ich diagnosis and treatment and calculations of grams/liter. That level is what is recommended by that site, my LFS and the box of aquarium salt that I bought. And you seem to be missing the fact that THAT IS WHAT WORKED FOR MY CASE OF ICH. Deal with it. I'm not going to backpeddle and say, "Gee, you're right, I was dosing too low." It's not going to happen. Why? Because I dosed at a level high enough to get rid of the ich in my tank. If it was too low, I would have posted something to the effect of "Don't follow the recommendations on the box of aquarium salt because you'll have to treat for ich again...that's what happened to me!" I didn't post that. Why? BECAUSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. What is with you people???????????? This discussion is almost coming to the point where I'll have to go out and buy infected fish, introduce them to my tank, videotape myself doing the treatment and give a full scientific report of the results.
I didn't dose at the levels that are, in my opinion, unnecessarily high for the treatment of ich. Why do I say that? Because I have no ich after treating the way I did. Therefore it is entirely possible, based on my one experience with ich and what people who have been selling fish for a lot longer than a lot of us have been keeping them have told me, that the levels that are recommended here on this forum are a little too high and not totally necessary. Put up proof to the contrary and then your argument will hold water. I have annectodal evidence to support my opinion. All I've read from people here is that "it's too low...why? Because...." Whatever! I know what worked for me. Deal.
