Hi Fellow Bar's .. Noticed I have a Ich outbreak in my tank.
So need to remove the fish and treat them. I do have a 50 gal tank I can use as a hospital tank .. but my problem is, I don't have any active filter media to prevent ammonia becoming an issue. I am not sure but I don't beleive those ammonia removal media would be a good idea for this?? And would probably get expensive running them for six or 8 weeks, waiting for my tank to become clear of ich.
May plan was to run the 50 gal with a old combo filter/skimmer I have .. and a power head to help with water flow. Just hoping someone in my area (live in Antioch, work in Oakland) would have some type of established filter media I could use in that filter that would be enough to maintain a fifty gal tank???? Or any sujestions on how to do this?? Thanks!! and hope someone can help me out.
