I caught ich in my main tank some months back that wiped out most of my fish. Only fish that survived was a goby I couldn't get out and a convict tang. Tank has been running in superhypo for 2 months. When I say superhypo I'm talking about 1.05. Reading up only way to get rid of ich in tank would be fallow for at least 72 days. I'm debating 2 options:
1. Of course take convict tang and goby out. Run tank fallow for 72 days or more. Would probably go through a mini cycle so probably another 2-3 weeks after the 72+ days before tank is ready
2. Drain tank completely. After taking out goby and convict tang of course. Letting it air dry a week. Refill tank with fresh cold rodi water. Let it run a week before adding salt to raise salinity. Probably go through another cycle which would take some time. After cycle fish should be ready for fish
Is my thinking wrong on either case?
