See if you can at least find formalin and treat the black ich, following the procedure exactly as described in the FAQ Topic.
Beth, I keep forgetting to ask this as I do believe in the QT everything theory, But how do you QT or HYPO fish with specific diets such as mandarins and the like... no pods in hypo. Thanks.

A mandarin would be one of those exceptions. These fish have natural immunity to parasites so its a lot safer to intro this fish directly into a QT, then other fish.
Some people will setup the QT to accommodate the mandarin, including having a live food source prepared up-front.
