ICH is back. I know better. Didn't QT an invert long enough. Piggy back. Weeeeeeeee!

Last time I left the tank fallow for 60 days. This time 60 or 90 days? I've read 60 is good but I don't want to take chances. This is last time that you will win ICH. I hate you like I've never hated anything before.

72 days is the number most wait. If you're going to beef up the CUC anymore now would be a good time, or add some corals before you start the fallow.

If I remember correctly, the life cycle of Cryptocarion is as long as 7 weeks. So 60 days should be enough.

Thanks. I'll go 72 days to be safe.
