there's no such thing as a reef safe ich cure. i would suggest you use established treatment protocols to rid your system(s). due the life cycle of ich it will appear to resolve itself sometimes, but will come back. it usually appears to have vanished when the ich protozoa fall off the fish and enter their encysted phase.

tank transfer, cp, copper, hypo, these are all effective treatments for the parasite. none of them are reef safe.
