Don't they treat the fish in the store? What causes ick anyway?

its a parasite most healthy fish are immune to I think. Dont quote me but temp changes will do it every time

I hate when I make a huge post and im not writing.

try again. It says take snails out but they can carry ick eggs on/in their shells or treat w/ salt, water temp 86 and daily water changes.

Or of course take a chance killing 15 snails which can also kill the fish by ruining the water.

even though they say salt is safe for plants I dont believe that. I rather chance the snails then the plants . So I guess I will raise heat a little and use meds. BRB
