First thing's first, is yes, I've read the Ich Treatment here and am wanting to try it now. Though, I have just tried a regimen of Maracide W/Biospheres for Ich and while it helped clear my guy up a bit, he still has a good amount on his side fins.

I've raised the temperature through the treatment to 85 degrees and have conducted one water change, even though the treatment says it's not necessary. Now, this has been going on for the last 6 days..

My question is.. Can I sustain another treatment for the same length at this temperature? Or should I give them a break and resume treatment after some downtime? They don't seem stressed, they're eating fine and aren't presenting any abnormal behavior.

If everything is a good to go, I'd like to keep the water at 85 degrees and begin the salt treatment!

Thanks!

Attached are some photos of the little guys, a Sp. Hap.. "All Red Kyoga" I got them from Live Fish Direct, he came in with the Ich. Sorry about the picture quality..he wouldn't stop darting when I set up for the snap!
