I treated my fish for Ick like directions said.
They didnt get better so I did 1/3 water change as directed and treated new water.
Even tried some Melafix to treat them.
The fish are dropping dead though.
Should I risk it and change all the water or should I Change ENTIRE filter ( yes I have the charcoal out now)
What should I do, they look terrible!
Any Ideas ( no flushing them )

Since you said you did a 1/3 water change and it didn't do anything, I'd change the filter.... But to be honest, I'm not fish expert, and there aren't many fish experts out there either.
If I were you, I'd call your local pet store or maybe even a veterinarian. They will know what to do! Good luck!

ok....relax. im assuming u use the right chemicals if ur using tap water. is the warer at the right temp. and have youlet the water sit and run for a week without fish in it so it can set up its own ph, and its own natural bacteria levels?
