Re: [APD] New Cure For Ick?

["S. Hieber" <shieber at yahoo_com>]

I think it's going to be hard to say what cured your fish
because Ich seems to fade away when the tank conditions are
stable and healthy. I think it's one of the reasons that
Ich is one of the easier illnesses to beat and why there
are so many diff cures boosted from so many sources.

While Ich certainly can be deadly, it seems one of the more
fragile of God's creatures.
