84 to 88 is good. Make sure you add more air in a high temp tank.

Are you sure it's ick, not scrape/scratch from fighting with other aros? It shouldn't get ick, since it has been in your tank for a while and your tank temp is 80, unless your tank get a temp. fluctuation recently

Just make sure you provide plenty oxygen when you raise the temperature. Good luck!

All of my aros get occasional white spots.......most of the time they're almost flush on the fish and almost look fuzzy. They're not as small as what ich looks like.

Does that sound familiar?
With raised temps, be sure to have plenty of aeration.

powerheads work too right?

powerheads work but its best to provide an air wand with pump
