What happened to my fish's ick.

Last night my fish was covered in ick. I added some declorinator/scal healer to the tank. This morning it was gone, but there were bumps on his body. I'm so confused. Help.

i not a expert or anything but i think what happened is that the ich parasite matured and then they fall off to reproduce. they will come back with even more. something to do with the life cycle of the parasite. maybe a mod can confirm this for you or someone with a shark rating.

Same thing happen to me. One day ok, the next ick, then back to ok again. I took out all the fish and started hypo.
Check out my thread, I think it might help some people in doing hypo. It's called "first time hypo". Sorry, I don't know how to do thread links.

The ich goes through different stages. One day you see it then the next day its not there, but it is still there just you can't see it. Many times hobbyists mistaken this for the fish being cured but its not and its only getting worse.
