all of my clowns are infested with ick. i had about 24 loachs, got them a week or 2 ago. they are covered in ick. i knew it was going to happen. as soon as the last loach gives i am taking my 180 down and selling it. if i cant seem to care for my favorite type of fish. i dont want any atall. keep posted for a sale of the rest of my fish.
:eek: :eek: :eek:
 
I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe fish aren't your thing. Maybe you're naturally good at other things? Sorry, don't know what else to say. But good luck, whatever you do now.

trust me wurm i know how to "treat" it. my treatments NEVER work, i think ive now killed over 50 loachs


Giving up is easy, it's your decision, maybe you should...however I have a question; do you buy your stock from the same LFS? You could be bringing the diseases and or sickly stock home??? just a thought....What else has your LFS done for you than count your cash ?:popcorn:

He got the loaches from different places, his last 2 batches were shipped to him from 2 different people and from the pics I saw they all looked healthy although one did die in transport but I believe that was due to a delay on the post office's end.
 
Wow. The president of the Loach club gave up? Maybe Ewurm can start a sponsor a clown loach program. For pennies a day, you can sponsor a clown loach. You will get pictures and even letters from your CL. Ewurm is fluent in loach-speak. :)
 
QT with PraziPro for Parasites

Use Salt for Ich

Get the loaches the same size..

Feed them a variety of good foods..


What's so hard about it?
