Why in the world I made a quarantine tank a planted tank is beyond me. I could really kick myself sometimes. I thought live plants would help new fishes acclimate to my home happier and healthier. Well now a few of my very tiny juvy neons have white specs on them (just got them yesterday). I am learning that it is difficult to treat because they are sensitive fish and plants are sensitive as well.
i have added aquari-sol which is supposed to be ok for plants and mild cases of ick. It is copper based but very diluted. I have also been increasing temp. I'm just not sure what and how much neons can handle.

please...any ideas?
