So far I lost 1 cardininal tetra.
White spots are gone...except for one.
He looks bloated, breaths rappidly compared to the others and on seems to have blisters?
Is this still ich?

Still swims with the rest and eats...but am worried

To me it still looks like ick, from my knowledge I would keep with the heat treatment and even if the ick goes away keep the temp up for about another 2 weeks or so then slowly drop it back down to normal to make sure the ick is dead and/or no longer in your tank.

Good Luck!

Do you have an air pump? Just a warning if you have the heat up be aware of your house temperature... My girlfriend set the heat up when it got cold out here and when I came back from a week away for work my tank was running at 92F and needless to say I lost some fish.

Yeah that looks like ich to me, do you keep a close eye on him has the ich go through its life cycle? ( fell off the fish then reinfected?)

Cannot say for sure.
Is the only one that still has spots and never looked that severe on the others.
He is also very bloated.

Have an airpump since the start of the treatment. Running day and night

Thanks.
Saw that 2 still had 2 little spots.

So will leave the temp at 30C for at least 2 more weeks and keep an eye on them.

You have my condolences regarding your lost fish. I have had a severe outbreak of ich, before, and it is horrible. You have the best wishes of us all. May your survivors flourish.
