I had to seperate my parent fish which had a mild case of ich from their babies cause they were really eating them voraciously. Anyways I digress I had to keep the ich infested fish in a 5 gallon and move the babies in another acclimation 5 gallon

Now I have two buckets that have been exposed to ich these are my only buckets I would buy new ones but they are brand new and I am cheap.

Today I filled them up with water and put triple the tank dose of quick cure (malachite green and formalin) then let it sit 4 hours.

Should this be good enough ? Any suggestions?

Fill them with water and a cup of bleach. Let them sit overnight. Rinse them well and let them air dry.

Perfectly safe way to sterilize.
Thanks will do. Appreciate the quick response everyone!
