If you ever find a miracle cure for ich, patent it quick. The white spots you see are really just dead tissue; the ich parasite is deeper in the fish. And, for every spot you see, there are probably hundreds in different stages; in the water column, LR, filter system, substrate, etc. Beth's hypo treatment must be followed exactly; its time consuming, but is the only way I know of to cure ich. (Besides copper).
