Ok, now that we know what it is. How do we get rid of it?

There are many different ways to treat ich. I personally suggest Coppersafe
This is what I use, and it works wonders. There are lots and lots of meds out there, some work some dont. Some call for you to treat for 8-10-15 days. I cant list them all here. Obviously raising the water temp will quicken the life cycle...however raising it high enough...I believe 84+ degrees F. Will kill the ICH in stage 2. You have to make sure your fish can take temps that high though. I'm sure others will post more ways of treating ICH.
