But doesn't matter! I don't want to state where I got this fish, but I finally found one true emperor tetra to add to the aquarium.. it had ich.. my bad, I dun blame anyone because I should of quarantined first! Anyways, after I noticed there wuz ich, i wuz like umm.. oh wellz, it's been there for hours, it would spread anyways, BUT, it did spread, for over 2 weeks I've been battling this! Over and over my fish recovers one day, gets it the next day or two! Then fin rot started appearing... they all eat and swim healthy.. until tonight, came home to a dead Angel Fish.. one of my wifey's favourite fish!

I have to get this cured.. its way too depressing!

My ONLY worries is, I tried bumping temperature to 82 and 84! I've check parameters every 2 days and no problem...! I tried adding aquarium salt! I NEVER had an ich problem like this, but this is CONSTANTLY coming back nonstop!!
I need something safe with plants, and safe with my two filter shrimps!!!
I'm seriously going insane, and the only thing i have is Sera Omnipur, and it already says it's not safe for plants!
Sure it might ruin my plants a littler, But it won't kill it will it?
And is it even safe for shrimps?

=( please someone... i'm horiffied!!!

get yourself a uv sterilizer and leave it running. do whatever treatments you need to do, but for elimination and prevention, you need the sterilizer.

Dun mind picking that up! =( so upset so upset!

But i'm asking if there's a solution to this RIGHT NOW, is Omnipur safe or not? and how bad it'll damage my plants!

Did you see this thread here?

Ich!

[eternity302]

READ! Speaks nothing of Shrimp safe~ (or i missed it?)
I didn't see anything in regards of shrimp!

[crazy72]

Can you move your shrimps into another tank?

[eternity302]

All other tanks occupied with carnivours! =( oscar and convicts would devoured them into shreds!

[crazy72]

How many do you have? Would a cheap 10G hospital tank host them?

[eternity302]

Just 2 filter shrimps! I have a bowl, I'm about to just dump them into! So anyon suggestions on omnipur?

Hi Eternity302, I have never had to deal with ich and so I don't know omnipur, but I have built up a bit of a pharmacy, including some meds that treat ich. If someone here can tell you which med is safe for your shrimp and tetras, I can give you some if I have it. I have Quick Cure, Parasite Clear and Para Guard, among others. But I don't have the expertise to tell you what would work for you. If you figure out what you need and you don't have it yourself, send me a PM.
