Hi...I bought two new blue rams last weekend and was keeping them at about 78 F and they got "ich". I raised the temperature since yesterday and added uniodized salt. I do not like chemicals. It is now at 84.5 F and the water has about 3.5 tbsp of salt in my daughters 10G tank. In the tank there are the 2 rams, 2 emerald cories, 1 very small pleco, and 3 adult guppies (leftover) that I have no other place for.
The other water conditions are PH 6.5. Hardness 100 ppm. No nitrites or nitrates. I have tried to get the temp higher but the heater is, I guess, at its max. Water changed today and I will change next weekend.
Any thoughts about the situation and what else I might do?
