That sucks, could have been brought on by stress from the jardini? Hope he makes a full recovery!
You need to provide information regard tank size, tank temperature, water quality, in order to figure out what needs to be correct.jardini23;2870961; said:
Who knows, your dat could catch the ick from those feeders you gave them
^ thats more than likely, did you quarantine the feeders first?? Try get the dat taking chopped shrimp and from then try get it onto pellets. Mine eats hikari sinking carnivore and arowana sticks like theres no tomorrow. If it refuses to take the pellets you can try stuffing pieces of shrimp with pellets when it gets a bit bigger.
Hope the whitespot clears up, how are you treating it?

If you don't add any medicine, no need to remove the carbon. If you can, keep tank temp in 82-84, to prevent ick in future. If you plan to feed live feeders, quarantine them first. Get a 10 gal tank, and buy a lot of them. Dose feeders tank with ick medicine to make sure they're clean before you throw them in the main tank. BTW, it's not hurt to keep treating your tanks 3-4 days after you don't see anymore white spot, to make sure it doesn't come back.jardini23;2882955; said:

Unfortunately not. Have a read of this, particularly the part about the life cycle: http://www.peteducation.com/article.cfm?c=16+2160&aid=2421
Keep treating for at least a week after the spots vanish just to be on the safe side.
