Ich and Acanthurus tangs - Years of experience and ich management

[4FordFamily]

Just reading this years later but this has been my experience in a beautiful display I started early to this year. Most of the fish are fine but a powder blue, powder brown, and Caribbean blue all succumbed to ich or potentially velvet. It’s in there and very hard to get small fish like a 6 line or hider like the Midas blenny out. My hippo and kole also lost the fight. A big ugly yellow is the only tang I’ve kept without a sign. Maybe Zebrasoma should be all I try for a few years. Thanks for this write up.

Sorry for the struggle, it’s no fun!

I really wanted to tell you that I've had my powder blue for years in my ick system but I'm horrible with time frames. Just found an old post from when I got the pbt, June 8th 2019. So that's close to a year and a half for whatever that's worth ;Cyclops

Every once in a while! That's a great story!

And this my friends is why I run ich free system! My Achilles, powder blue, dej sailfin, purple and yellow tangs appreciate it

I never have trouble with any fish with any disease. Tangs, manta rays, whale sharks, it doesn't matter.
