Ich and fry

[Tandor]

Help.

I added for new fish to my tank today, and after 2 hours I noticed one of them had Ich (I know I should have quarentined, but I had another fish in my quarentine tank). I moved the infected fish to the quarentine tank after taking out every thing else, but in my main tank I have 10 platy fry in a breeder net. If more infections show up, how well will the fry handle being medicated. I would use half dose because I have tetras. The medicine I am using is Quick Cure which is formaldahyde and malachite green.

Thanks

Tandor

Thanks!! Hopefully it won't come to that, maybe I got the infected fish out in time. But I will feel a little better knowing that someone else has had some success.
