Well, the Ich just dropped off. Still running salt and 86 deg heat in the tank but now one of my juvenile Oscars has a Fungal Infection.
What do I do now?

Secondary Fungal Infection after Ich!

- Start date
True fungal infections are rare. This is bacterial infection, Columnaris. Can you get Jungle Fungus Clear (the one without salt content)? That will clear up the bacterial infection. Most meds intended for fungus can clear up bacterial infections and most bacterial infections are misdiagnosed as fungal infections.
Woke up this morning and it's mostly gone, looks normal at first glance but there's a light trace of it still. Should I still med the tank?
I'm running salt and heat until next Friday.

No, keep doing what you are doing. If it comes back or it gets worse then medicate. Theres no need to medicate if you can fix the problem another way, meds are really a last resort type a thing. I would just keep doing what you are doing and watch it. It may just go away with what you are doing now.
