Dont go ahead and buy an expensive UV sterilizer. Regals are notorious for being shy and getting ich easily. They are VERY hardy fish if given the proper living conditions (good water quality, non aggressive cohabitants..etc). I used to have 2 beautiful regals. During large water changes they would show a few spots of ich. Nothing to be worried about, it would be gone in a few hours. A UV is not required to beat ich.Originally Posted by erikharrison
You may want to buy a UV sterilizer. If you see your regal coming down with ICH, turn it on.UV is the primo way to go when it comes to ICH.
An adult yellow tang will rip a baby hippo to pieces.
I agree with Brian. A good UV only eliminates free swimming cysts.
