View Full Version : My clowns are cured ! (maybe)

Just thought I would share some good news, with those that have helped me.

Although I bought the formeldehide (right spelling ?) I didn't use it. Since the clowns were eating I thought I would monitor them and use garlic soaked feed every "meal time". About 2 days ago all the white appendages had dissapeared and today their slightly ragged fins were looking so much better. Are they cured ? I guess time will tell....

Although there is some bad news ...... I realize I have made a grave mistake....since getting into this hobby/pastime/obssesion I realize I should have got a bigger tank. 75g just isn't big enough ! :)

Hi Nige, glad your clowns are doing better.

I'd advise to keep feeding the garlic for a while yet, not too much (can be troubling to their digestive systems) but do keep feeding it as the ich life cycle can last for several weeks.
