Hi guys first post,
After loosing a bunch of fish I realize it's got to be the dreaded ICH. I don't want to use the herbal treatments as I hear they are a crap shoot and may do more damage than good.
As I don't have the room for a hospital tank I was wondering if there is anyone here that currently has one setup that might be able to help me out I would pay for babysitting if necessary.
Just need it for the 8-10 weeks and I would supply food and any necessary supplements and of course the copper.
I have about 10-15 fish in total left.
Also need to know if keeping the invertebrates like crabs, shrimp, cucumbers, starfish, anemones and coral mess with the " keeping the tank fallow for ten weeks" or if they don't count.
Once again any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am in Rockland county so anybody not to far pleas let me know of you can help.

Thanks and gd bless.

With all those fish you are going to need a hefty sized QT tank. My suggestion is either leaving the fish in the tank and feeding them heavily with some garlic extract. Im talking 3 to 5 times per day or go down to your LFS and ask them to do you a favor and let you set something up. Only thing though is I think the move will stress your fish out worse and lose all of them
