It would be hard and potentially expensive to treat a 240g aquarium. The best option is to keep trying to catch the CL and get him in a quarantine tank. Ich spreads rapidly to other fish. Have any of your fish ever had ich before in that tank?

Once a fish in your tank has ick, you have to treat the whole tank. It is very treatable. Raise the temp to about 87 degrees and start dosing with salt. The tank should be fine.

WAT KIND OF SALT !!! AND I HAVE ICH TREATMENT BUT ITS NOT ANUFF FOR A 240G

You can use aquarium salt like that made by API, or Mortons White Crystal Solar Salt or Mortons Canning and Pickling Salt, as these products do not contain additives.

I have always used Quick Cure on my tank. Use the dosage for scaleless fish. Never lost a fish.
