Rescue tank, with ICH...

I went to my moms house and little did I know she hadn't even looked at the fish in 2 weeks. My stepdad does all the fish care and didn't notice it. All of the fish had ICH... There is a pleco way too big for the tank and it has about 4large angel fish in it (29g tank) so I am going to get the tank this weekend and cure the ich.. Can the pleco do the salt/high temps?

This tank needs a major overhaul, the bottom was disqusting! with brown diatoms....

I will ad at myt mothers defense she doesn't have the time for the tank while running a business and takes care of my grandmother... Thats why she said for me to take it.

high temps yes..salt is a maybe...although they dont handle it at all, if its a bad case, you might have to attempt it

im sorry to hear that. the plec can handle the temps but probably not the salt very well.

Thats what I thought. I told mom to raise the temp up until I came over and get my stepdad to vaccum it good. (like that will happen with their sced, at least they will raise the temp)

The fish looked pretty bad. Thats how I noticed one of them was swimming oddly and I went over to the tank and it was covered.

I keep fresh water aquarium salt in my 155 at all times with a reading of 1.000. The Pleco and the rest of the fish are healthy as can be. ( stock list below) Best of luck!
