What fish most likely will catch ick?

[helpme74]

I'm going to stock my tank an i wanted to stay away from getting ick.

The ones most people think is probably Tangs.

yellow tangs dont seem prone to ich while Hippo tangs must have a sign on their head. I've never had any other fish past or present get ich besides hippo tangs.

Blue Hippo Tangs get ICH, ICH, and more ICH.
but iv'e seen alot of Blue hippo's get cured in a couple of days when the lfs's put a couple cleaner shrimp!

Not getting ick is something no one wants. I have Never had it in anhyof my tanks and you dont have to either ifyou purchase only healthy stock, quarantine all your fish prior to placing them in your tank and practice basic tank maintenance procedures like regular water changes, maintaining a constant PH, temperature and Specific gravity, not overstocking your tank or putting incompatible fish together which all cause stress. That is when your fish get ich, when their immune systems are weakened.

Plus having the PROPER diet offered to them. No, Garlic does not cure ICH but it does boost the immune system in fish.

The best thing to post is what fish would least likely get ich...which would be gobies, blennies, and dragonets, due to their slime coat. Angels. rabbitfish, puffers,triggers, clowns... are all prone as well. Any fish really that is stressed and exposed to ich can get it.
