The answer i got was that eels do not generaly GET ich, but do they CARRY it?? if I leave him in and it does not die off then they will get it back right!! So I need a definative answer..Thank you...none of the sharks replied unless I missed it. If so please lead me to thier reply...

well,
sharks are moderators of the board, there answers are not the final word, there are lots of people on this board with a wealth of info, Fmarini ansered u question frank, who's has been hooby many years and writes articlles on SWF is highly regarded here for his extensive amount of info he provides to the hobby, you have heard they can get ick and that they are also very hardy and don't get it as easily , u have to read thru the post's sometimes and decide as to how you want to handle your situation, as everyone's case is different ,
to sum up your question:
they generally do not get it but yes they can
if u leave him in then he may or may not get it there is no def way to know for sure

Thank you, I did not know that the sharks were only moderators, my wrong assumption. Thank you, and I will remove him as well so I am sure that there will be no more ich issues, or so I hope!!
Thank you!!
I meant no harm to anyone elses knowledge, I just need to get to know who the really involved and experienced are...There ought to be some sort of rating as to knowledge/experience??
Thanks again..
Respectfully,
Bill
