I have a Fowler tank with a ick breakout.
My fish are in QT with copper. Does ick attach to the plumbing and skimmer, reactor? Tank glass and silicone. I am thinking of taking my rock out and putting it in a tote for 6 weeks. Along with the sand. Then draining the tank bleaching it and refilling it , I will have a bare tank for 6 weeks, but I will be able to have my fish in the DT. Should I run tap water through the system, will that flush out the piping and filters of stuck on ick?
Any suggestions?
