Salt, Garlic and warm water, just add some fish, rice and vegetables and you have a nice mealDon’t medicate. I had a terrible outbreak. I tried everything. The only thing that worked was 86F, aquarium salt, and food soaked in Garlic Guard. Ich hates all 3. Be patient. It can take several weeks.

For the OP, you need to get the water temperature up to 30C/ 86F asap. The parasites breed faster in warm water but die when it gets too hot. Right now your warm water is allowing the parasites to grow faster but not be killed. Raise the temp to 86F asap.
