"A fish with flaring gills is sick...and may show no bumps on body."
What happens if you have the opposite.
Say you've had fish in a hospital tank for almost 4 weeks.
Now knowing the cycle of the Ich parasite,it decides to hatch while in a Hypo tank at 1.009 SG(refractor).From what I understand,this is why you have them in hypo,to catch the parasite dropping to encyst.This has happened to me.Only one fish seems to have a slight infection(male clown).All other fish in the tank show no signs.So suddenly what began as a 4-6 week thing is now a 8-10 week ordeal.I am sure of one thing,the display will be void of the parasite by the time I put these fish back in.
I can tell you nmhs2,hypo is a long slowwwwww process.
Just disappointed I guess.......
