It's a good sign the ick is getting better. Large clown loaches stress easy and don't work well with change. Just keep the temp up and water conditions perfect. Have you tried blood worms?
Am I doing it right?? CL with ich....

I would say get blood worms or something to get them to eat. They'll be stronger and fend off the ick much better. Also careful with adding too much salt and meds. They're scaleless fish and are sensitive to both

Ich are almost gone
will keep the salt + heat level steady for another week. Prazipro for another 3 weeks with one dose per week. then a drip of 1 gph for a couple day to match up with the main tank....
