My baby TSN got ick and so do the other fish he's about 4 inches but the question I have is why isn't the other side of his gills moving he is using his mouth and the right side to breath (when looking at his face). Never had this happen before to me and was confused. I am using aquarium salt and quick cure also turned the heat up a little do it's about 82 in the tank. Idk what else I can really do if you know pls help thanks
 
Did you aerate the water? You are NOT supposed to combine salt with formalin based meds. Use salt only and make sure your water is well aerated.
 
Well I used both I will stop ice guard treatment and use salt only but one of the air lines fell out of the tank didn't notice so I believe that could be part of the problem Is that the only reason tho cause I dealt with this before and it's gone away
 
I added two more air lines all together I have three in the tank going constantly
