I was wondering if its possible to raise the temp/salinity to kill ich in a tank to forgo the 72 day fallow and if so at what temp/salinity does ich start to die and how long would you have to keep it there

I guess I was trying to say - yes - you can choose parameters - that will kill CI - in a system. But - it will also kill everything else. So - perhaps if concerned - just bleach everything. (note I dont know what you're trying to save) But - In fact in the reef the temps are often far higher than our tanks. So its an excellent questionI was wondering if its possible to raise the temp/salinity to kill ich in a tank to forgo the 72 day fallow and if so at what temp/salinity does ich start to die and how long would you have to keep it there
the only thing in the tank is rock and sand I have taken all the fish out and moved the coral to another tank I am just trying skip the fallow period by killing the ich with something directlyI guess I was trying to say - yes - you can choose parameters - that will kill CI - in a system.

If you have moved it - ,my opinion would be nothe only thing in the tank is rock and sand I have taken all the fish out and moved the coral to another tank I am just trying skip the fallow period by killing the ich with something directly
do you think heating the tank upwards of 150f + would kill the ich or is there not enough evidence to come to a conclusion that it would kill it
