Ick and Zebra Botias

Post by Tiffany » Sun Jun 20, 2010 8:47 pm

Alright Master G, I have Ick in my tank and want to know if I can add a full dose of Cupramin with my botias or should I do a reduced treatment? The tank also houses my new bushy nose pleco, rasboras, a betta, and platies. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

yes dose as recommended for FRESHWATER,

Ick looks like little air bubbles on you fish, in the early stages most easily seen on the clear pectoral fins and tail fin.
