Tangs Keep Dieing from Ich - Page 2

This post brings up some questions: Are you sure it was ich? How long has your tank been set up? Some of your comments make it seem like this is a new tank. What are your water parameters?

It's easy to get caught up in the debate of tank sizes and the best ich treatment, but while all of that is very valid, I find it hard to believe that your fish die within a week from ich. I saw this poor blue tang at a Petco absolutely coated with ich, but I kept seeing it in there for WEEKS and even pointed out to the employees there that they needed to treat the tang.

So, again, are you sure it was ich?
