Hi,
I have a blue tang in my 29G tank. It has little white dots like a ick on
its skin.
I diped it in freshwater for 30 seconds today. Does anybody let me know how
often should I treat it and other medications?

Thank you,
Sungwon Ha

A hippo tang in a 29g, no matter what size the hippo is now it is going
to stress out. Your best bet in keeping that fish healthy is to treat in a
hospital tank (along with your other fish if you have any others) for 6
weeks with copper or hyposalinity. And get at least a 120g if you want to
keep your fish happy (ich free).
