I would just suggest just use the salt and heat treatment. Methylene Blue will kill your beneficial bio bacteria.
 
i turned off 1 of my 5 filters to save the bacteria in taht one added 2 air stones and kept two overhead filters running and 2 submersible is 3 days the right amount of time pls help anyone this is my boy friends main tank

Did you use Methylene Blue already if not I would personally not use and turn the filters back on. Btw do not let the Bio media dry out or you will be recycling the aquarium again.
 
already used i panicked sorry but is my procedure right 3 days then water change? should i add beneficial bacteria after?

Don't add any bio media the Methylene Blue will kill it. Never used Methylene Blue for ich.
 
oh i mean after 3 days when i start wc 20% when can i add bio media from our other tanks is the 3 day period correct then start water change every 2 days 20%?
