Hello I have a question regarding Ich treatment on golden dojo loaches this is the first time ever I have had to deal with Ich on my scaleless fish I have heard I cant use copper based meds or that i cant use aquarium salts on them I am just wondering if anyone has used aquarium salts and raised the temps to get rid of Ich or what would u suggest as a treatment it is not just my dojos that have it tho almost everything in my tank has Ich I went away with my Fiance for a few days and we left his fater in charge of our fish and came home to this mess I am super upset as I love all my fish and do not want to lose any by going the wrong method this way so if someone with expert advice on this could help me out Id be greatly appreciated I just really dont want to buy the wrong meds today or add salt if it will kill my dojos please and thank you any advice is good advice for me right now Im a worried fish mamma here lol
 
I have read that Melafix, Rid Ich, Quick cure and a UV sterilizers all might work but I am def looking for someone that has experienced this themselves to steer me in the right direction please and thank you
 
You're gonna need to use salt + heat but the percentage of salt needs to be within the tolerated range for the dojo loaches. Isolate it. Keep the temperature at 82 for 5 days while having salt in the water at the tolerated level of dojo loaches.
