Ive done the reading, and ive looked through the forums here, i believe i have an outbreak of ICH in my DT. However there are some variables that i was looking for answers to just because i didnt see anything that answered these 2 questions in anything ive read so far.
1. Does ICH appear one day then disapear the next, only to reapear a day or two later. but then disapear again?
2. Micro bubbles, can they be mistaken for ICH. If no, thn is there another fish disease that would fit the criteria for ICH, but show the symptoms of question 1?
Other than the physical appearance of ICH, the fish are not exhibiting any of the signs that accompany an ICH diagnosis. The physical signs appeared approx 5 days ago, and i have a QT to treat the affected fish in. however i didnt want to stress the fish out unnecessarily if the treatment wasn't needed.
I have a skimmer on the tank that does create a storm of micro bubbles here and there.
i know pics would help greatly, but im in the process of upgrading all devices(phones,laptop,ipad,) so image files are currently unavailable right now until the tech gets up and running for file transfers and uploading. Any feedback is greatly appreciated, if im going to be treating the fish i would be starting this weekend.
DT has 3 NEMS and other small inverts in there, treatment of DT through conventional methods are not an option.
