I have a 75g with mainly Krobia Xinguiensis and various tetra, cory, and a blue panaque. I noticed Ich on the Krobia on 9/14. Immediately started treating with Ich X and daily water changes. Unfortunately most of the Krobia have not made it. Two are left which despite one being clear and the other almost there. I have little hope they’ll make it. Rest of fish in the tank have no signs and never really had any signs.
Starting to think about the next step and having the tank safe to try Krobia again. My question is how long to continue treating with Ich X. I’ve seen various recommendations up to 3 weeks, but some variation between from total treatment duration to 3 weeks post last sign.
