I am installing a sump system in my tank but my tank is not drilled so I have a overflow box. One of the things that I am tring to figure how to prevent is when I lose power I will lose my siphion and when power comes back on the pump will drain the sump into the tank and onto the floor. Does...

So if I take yhe fish out for 3 months and treat them then that would rid my tank of ich. What about the invertebrates? All I have is a few dirrerent kinds of crab, snails, an urchin and a couple stars. They don't have to be treated as I understand it, is that correct?

I believe that I had an Ick problem a while ago. I did not treat my display tank because of my live rock. The only fish that I still have is a Six Line Wrasse and a yellow fish that I don't remember what it is. It has been awhile since I had my problem. How can I tell when it is safe to...

All that I have in my tank is fish and live rock. I haven't started on corals yet. I hope to in the next 6-12 months. Would it hurt to treat in my tank, or should I still quarantine the fish.

So if I treat my tank now for it and I am careful when adding to my tank I might not have this problem again.

so even though I have not added to my tank in 4 months I had ick in my tank for that long.

I believe that I have a ick problem. My question is how does one get ick if i have not added anything to my tank in months. I thought that you got it by adding a fish to the tank that already has it.
