You have not pictured one thing that will actually cure/kill ICH entirely.

Lol marineDepot post a qt tank

There is no such thing as something that will cure or kill the parasite it all depends on the strain type and situation of the fish

Only thing i would recommend that is missing here is the stuff for bacterial infections because thats the real killer once the fish starts flashing (scratching) it creates open sores that gets infected that ultimately kills the fish i would recommend melafix i have seen it do wonders on fish and coral

We appreciate all your comments! Our humble intention here was to illustrate the life cycle of ich in an easy to understand way. The short article that accompanies the infographic encourages quarantining fish and goes into more detail about treatment options and challenges. We state treatment is not always effective. You can read ich medication reviews from other hobbyists who have tested the products sold on our website. We display a "Verified Buyer" badge if the reviewer bought the product from us.

Here are a couple of videos we've done on quarantine for reference:
