I have a 10 gallon tank and the fishes are covered with ich, i am currently using rid ich and i would like to know what it means by saying "remove carbon from filter before treatment, i have a tetra whisper filter could somebody tell me what this is trying to say?
 
The carbon filters would remove the medications, since carbon absorbs all heavy metals and other chemicals in the water.

The ick medicine is basically dissolved copper that kills the microorganisms, but also the fish themselves if you use too much of it. So be careful and follow the instructions, you rather add too little instead of too much to get rid of the ick. Also, when you remove the filter, keep them moist like in a bowl of water (best would be the fish tank water), so the beneficial bacterias will not die off.
