180g tank

few dwarf neons
raise temp to 86-87F and pm charles for some medication

salt works & its cheaper im sure.
raise the temp & salt worked for me
to get better results faster, maybe a water change, then when adding the water back
just make the water a little warmer & add salt ..

ich is supposed to die if you can get the temp over 89.5F stops reproducing over 86 and cant infect new hosts over 85, i hear kosher salts from the grocery store is the cheapest replacement for aquarium salt

Aquarium salt. Any LFS likely carries it. See this article for recommendations on quantities and temp. Understanding and Treating Ich or White Spot
Some fish are sensitive to salt, but most can handle a small amount. I see you have Geophagus in your tank. I don't know anything about them, but a quick Google search on "Geophagus salt" seems to indicate that people do use salt for them so I'd think they'll be ok. You should probably do you own research to double check though.
Good luck.
