i have a pictus catfish and 2 irredesant sharks in my 30 gallon tank. they all have ick. i have used malachite green & formalin for a week and a half with no charcol in my filter. it looked like it was gone so i put charcol back in my filtration and in 2 days it was back, my fish are not eating and i am getting worried. i am treating again but they look awful. i need some advise...

well you also have to do water changes, turn the heater up and add rock salt... with treatment and doing these other things within 4-9 days will be clear
u can always try cureall as well it kills the good n bad algae in the tank its kind of like shocking ur whole tank
I LOST 7 FISH WITH THIS ICK OUTBREAK. THE WORST I'VE EVER HAD ....MY PITCUS DID NOT MAKE IT BUT MY SHARKS ARE GREAT. I'VE REPLACED MOST OF THE FISH WITH NEW AQUIRES INCLUDING A KNIFE FISK....THANKS FOR THE HELP...
