Rid Ich Safe For Fry??

Fish Addict · April 8th, 2008

My fish tank has Ich

so I have started treating it with Rid Ich+. I also am currently raising 3 platy fry

. I know that invertibrates are bad with the medicing, but I want to know if it is fine for the fry...

Ich-Attack is safe for fry. I'm not sure on Rid Ich+. The warm water is what gets rid of the ich, so we've never added anything but Ich-Attack.

As CoBettaCouple says, raise the temperature. Over 82F kills ick, and you need to keep it about 83 for AT LEAST 2 weeks. Good Luck.

Yes, I have learned that now! SO far I do not think any of my fish have died, the signs have already started to decrease... I am adding Rid Ich and raising the temperature, I think about 2 degrees a day... Right now it should be at about 80 degrees...
