I am using Ick attack as treatment.
the first thing you need quaranty new fish before you put them in your main display this is the main part if you don't want to get ich,ick attack will not help the best thing to treat fish it's hypo treatment .
i suggest you to make a QT to move all your fish and to treat them with hypo to kill the ich. (after 4-6 week put them again in your main tank)
when you buy or get a new fish put him in the QT about 4 week before you put him in your main display.
keep good water parameter and you will be good to go.
one more other and important thing don't spend your money on this medication they 90% not work.
