    Ok just bought a green goby from petco and got him home put him in quarantine tank . Just a little half gallon frog Tank. Noticed he has ich .Could not see at store or in bag but once in qt very visible. What is the most effective coarse of treatment? All suggestions are welcome. Got him for 8.99 thought he was just way cool. Thanks in advance everybody.(not having  much luck getting quality livestock lately am I?)

    Yes he is small, seems pretty hardy so far. What type of ich medication would be recommended , are we looking at formalin . If so any body know where i can get it in north liberty or cedar rapids.
