How to know tat Ich had died in display tank?


Recommended Posts

I had done hyposalinity on my sick fish in a quarantine tank and my display tank is left fishless (except 1 skunk and 1 anemone) for 30 days. But I can still see some tiny white stuff swimming in the display tank? Are these ich? Thot that they would be dead by this time? How do I know that they are completely wipe out? Please kindly advise. Thanks a lot.

The skunk is actually doctor shrimps. I read from some website saying to leave the display tank fishless for 30 days? But does will the ich grow and feed on those liquid food for invertebrates when I feed my anemone with that?
