	Need some advice
lunker101 Fish Addict Posts: 521 Kudos: 284 Votes: 2 Registered: 19-Aug-2003	My 25g just broke out with ick. Normally i wouldnt be too worried and would be confident i can take care of it, but i only have 6 days to treat it. I will be out of town next week so im very worried about how things will turn out. Should i put a UV on it and hope for the best? Should i just do a regular treatment these next 6 days and pray they pull through and last even though i will b gone for a week?

I will be picking up the UV tomorrow but i highly doubt i will be able to cure it in time before i leave. I was thinking of getting an automatic feeder and getting some of the ick-capsule meds and putting them in there to help with the treatment while im not home.
