I have 2 new parrots in my 20 g tank(im going to upgrade it once theyre bigger, only 2" right now.), and one of them has about 5 white dots on its fins. The one that has the ich is being bullied by the other fish, so Im guessing maybe its stressed? The other parrot is fine, and the tank has good filtration and I just syphoned the gravel/changed water.
My tank has had an ich outbreak before, but it went away after 10 days of nonstop cleaning and meds and a lot of dead fish. I know ich never fully goes away, so could that have infected the parrot? My tank was empty of all fish when I put them in.
So, should I medicate the tank, even if only 1 fish has the signs of ich? Any help would be appreciated.
And Ive had them in my tank for about 6 days now.
