Advice on switching treatments? IchX arrived today, should I just do 25% water changes 4 times over the next week then dose with ichx?

Alright, I am settling on an uncycled tank with a bacterial bloom plus ich. Dosed with Prime and Stability, will reduce feeding. I have IchX arriving tomorrow and would like to switch over to that gir tasting the ich, how would y'all suggest I safely transition from coppersafe to ichX?

First, rant that local box stores in my area don't carry many ich remedies. Water parameters pH 7.5, Ammonia 0, Nitrites 0, Nitrates 0 (I've been doing 25% WCs EOD, is that why Im at 0 for nitrates?) Currently treating with CopperSafe, ich-x arrives tomorrow. How do I safely transition to...

This conversation has me missing my purple nerites

Much improved!! Both eyes are nearly cleared.

Water changes, trying to be patient and not buy all the fish immediately this go round.

He got worse the day after I put him in, but had improvement last night.

He's been in isolation for 3 days, suggestions on boye long to go before meds?

Goldie recovered well, but the next morning I had another goldfish with injuries to thier eyes. I have a suspicion the black moor i s taking advantage of night and black substrate to attack the the others.

I was planning to do a 50% change this afternoon. On the head between the eyes there's a white patch, Goldie hanger had any white patches in the last 2 years I've had her. I was curious if she's just recovering from trauma since it doesn't look like fungus to me.

Goldie here has been the beast of the tank for years, but recently got schooled by a tiny black moor. They eyes have been healing up great, but that white patch on the head is newer. Not raised, just pale and from some angles disappears completely. Ideas?

We have babies!!! My holding female astatotilapia call opted (eastern happy) let out ~50 free swimmers yesterday :) I'm looking for homes for 40 1" fry, I can ship and I take pride in my packaging. Started up my 'green' pond this week in anticipation of the great white cloud race with GSAS...

iPhone 4s has a really nice camera! Now we just need to have a way to post pictures straight from the phone to fishbox. Like the fish addicts Facebook! Great colors!!

No kidding! White clouds at our petco (when they have them) are outlandishly priced!

I plan to have more up by the end of the summer. I've given up on baby number 2 so the would be nursery is now the new fish room :) fair trade?!
