Lost my 3 glass headstanders to ick yesterday. I noticed the ick monday night and treated with salt and a temp of 82 as I was not sure how high of a temp they would tolerate. My wife called me yesterday at work and said two of them were stuck to the filter, I got home and sure enough only the big one was alive. This morning I woke up to find the big one stuck to the filter. It sucks, these fish are very rare around here and they were a really cool predatory schooling fish. Oddly enough I have a Hujeta in the same tank and it does not seem to be affected at all by the ick while the headstanders were completely covered in it.

All of my pics of them covered in ick and after they passed are on my laptop at home but these are the little guys I lost :(
