to keep it from re occuring, isolate the fish with the disease, and cure them with ick guard or other ick cure, watch ur ph temperature and make sure you dont add any new fish in the tank right now, ick is like the plauge to fish it spreads rapidly and is easy to lead to death, also put some stress coat cuz your fish are prolly wired right now,
good luck hope they are all okay !

You need to treat the current ick/ich infestation in your main tank. Once that is done.
1)Add a little salt to your tank. One teaspoon per 5 gallons.
2)Be sure isolate new fish in a quarantine tank for 3 days.

Get some Ick Guard that should help. You can get it at a pet store. It's a liquid and comes in a bottle, just put a couple of drops in your tank.
