Got home tonight to a dead Anthias and my Heni and Saddleback had Ich. Funny my wife said, afterI found the dead fish and diseased tank, " oh I meant to tell you the pretty red one was dead! God I love her! Did a quick water change and add Some ICH-X(thats all my LFS had).
Dumb Ass that I am did not have a UV on the tank. Was supposed to get one from a member but did not have time, went on a business trip. Prior to leaving i placed an additional heater in my sump for protection. Temp spiked to 85 degrees, ask my wife to take it out temp dropped to 78 degrees i.e. ICH
Lesson learned - Going to buy UV online now- any suggestions on ICH treatment?
