Re: Clown ich after 4 days! I need your opinion!

I have too many hobbies already.

Next time, I'll just tell the newbie with ich, "You're hosed! Flush 'em. Nothing you can do."

Not my fault you all have short attention spans.

Re: Clown ich after 4 days! I need your opinion!

now, now, don't get all butt-hurt with the teasing. We still love you.

actually, have of your sarcastic advice is good...nothing you can do, just leave it alone. I have found that more often than not, the fish will be fine if left alone. My fish almost seem to develop an immunity to the Ich after getting over the first bout. The trick is to keep them not stressed and eating a lot.

um, don't count on it. There is a better chance you will get action from Biff than....wait a minute. That example won't work. Well, best of luck to you
