Hi does freshwater dips help with Ich after you medicated the tank. I know the medicine only kills the free swimming Torments. PH and temp same as Tank of course. Thanks Tom

Fresh water only stuns the hanging parasites (so they are still alive just stunned enugh to fall off) it does help and can be useful when used with another form of parasite removal
Medication kills free-swimming parasites is true and if used for a full term (my recommendation 6-8 weeks) it will get to all of them since ich lifecycle includes free swimming
2 weeks attached
2 weeks eggs
2 weeks free-swimming
it can take a couple of days longer depending on the strain of ich thats why 8 weeks is best

Quinine Sulfate. A shark safe version of Chloroquine phosphate. Got it from the place you recommended. Fishmedsonline. Anyway did you see my other post with the same angel(personifer) with what looks like a worm sticking out of his mouth? Thanks Tom
