as quoted from www.animal-world.com in regards to marine ANGELS:
For external parasites you can slowly increasing the temperature of your tank to at least 82? F (28? C). That will prevent the parasite from completing its life cycle which includes the attachment to fish.
i thought this only worked for FW ich. has anyone else used this method?
as well as this from SEACHEM:
Re: Using Metronidazole to cure Ick - reef safe treatment
Feeding your fish Metronidazole for a minimal of 14 days will normally get rid of ich. By feeding your fish the metronidazole the parasite consumes it when it bites the fish. This kills the parasite. Good luck.
