Ya know, people are almost always surprised to hear me say “ i have never cleaned my tank or changed the water or anything of the sort”. And they often ask me “how do you do it”? My answer always is “ to let nature take its course and to run itself rather than trying to do it myself. I honestly wish Father fish had at least 2 million subscribers, because he actually knows what to do and when to do it. Thanks again for a great video really enjoyed it
Well said
😊😊😊😊
Agree but your tank set up is key to this! it’s not a one size fits all scenario which I think people get confused by, especially new fish keepers
@@darrenwallace7471 yeah depends on your setup. But his reel on this saved my fish . Love his knowledge
Wow ~ thank you so much for your amazing advice and knowledge, dear Father Fish.❤ I'm learning SO much.
You saved both my tanks from Ich, 86/87F until it's gone. All fish perfectly healthy and doing amazing! Really appreciate you recording and uploading an updated video!🙏 Thanks so much Father Fish
@@Awsimilateoh yes, minimum 3 days for the ick to drop, then another 4 days to confirm it's dead and can't reattach. One tank took 3 weeks for me, but no fish, plants or bacteria were harmed. Natural is the best option..
It worked great for me too. I had to throw a blanket over the tank to get over 86, so I ended up maintaining around 88-89 while the ick spots clear up. I'm pretty confident that I won't lose a single fish from this.
Can you believe that some people think that 90 degrees will 'cook' their fish, but they are more than happy to dump toxins and formaldehyde into their tank? Insanity.
@@casey1204 exactly, it's crazy. For some reason humans love pumping toxins into everything.
@@casey1204took three nights and it’s cleared… the few ick spots from a few of my black tetras. Just pure joy from me.
@@DashDrones I'm doing that now. Should I do my regular scheduled water change or wait till later?
Only just found this gentleman and what a delight of a man to have in our hobbie. This man breaks down alot of what I already knew better than I ever could do. I stumbled onto the cycling of tanks through impatience because I would set up a tank and want fish straight away. Everything went well. Never had issues and all fish lived aslong as they should've. I stumbled across the need for no water changes through laziness. Forgetting to do water changes and then soon realising I didn't need to do them.
When you think about it. You realise we are being sold a lie. Shops want to sell you shit. They willingly tell you to chuck a shit load of unnatural chemicals into our tanks. It can't be good. Decent filtration, sandy/soil substrate, and loads of plants, bit already matured filter media and your tank is away. Add fish and enjoy.
I now have 5 tanks, 40k koi pond and never had a obvious issue. I've lost the odd fish with no obvious issue over the last 30 years, but this will happen, they are living creatures, and sometimes they will die suddenly, just like everything and everyone else. Don't panic and start chucking the shit the shops sell you. For many of them, it's profit over wellbeing. Look at your fish, they don't lie. If they are brightly coloured, feeding and swimming fine, you haven't an issue.
So many hobbyist that ran to the fish store to buy and fix issues with chemicals like myself. I didn't know your way and didn't know how to go into CZcams channels. Thank you Father fish for giving us the knowledge.
Thank you Father Fish, I’ve been battling ick on and off for a few years. I fried my giant amazon sword plant with ick meds. But I re-did my tanks the Father Fish way and my fishes are so happy and healthier!
This channel came as a lifesaver, in the end I only used salt and ditched the acriflavine/methylin etc
Father Fish is a treasure to the aquascapping world! This is what having experience and knowledge is all about! Cheers from a fan in India.
2.5 weeks ago my prized goldfish all had ich and I was worried. One of them had over 20 spots on him. I watched this video about a week after it was posted and did exactly what FF prescribes here. I didn’t have a heater so I ordered one on Amazon and it arrived a full 2 days after i noticed the ich. I raised the temp to 87 which took about 24 hours and tried to keep it there for a week. My house is very cold at night, so the tank would get down to about 83 overnight and return to 87 by noon. I kept the temperature like that for 3 days and the ich disappeared. I kept the temperature at that level for 4 more days and the ich hadn’t returned. On the 8th day I began lowering the temperature by 3 or 4 degrees per day until it was back to room temperature (around 72 degrees). The ich hasn’t returned after 2 weeks and my fish seem happier than ever. I’m so pleased that this worked without any chemicals that could have affected my fish or plants or microorganisms. Thanks father fish.
I have a heater rated for 55 gallons in my 29 and I’m having a hard time getting the temps above 80ish. My house gets colder at night too and I was just wondering if you had any tips on getting the temps up
@@TCS_Aquatics the only thing that I know help a bit are a lid (I didn’t have one) and turning the ceiling fan off at night (I did this and it got me maybe an extra 1 degree Fahrenheit. It still worked just fine for me even tho my temps were lower than prescribed and inconsistent. Another thing you may try is putting the heater in direct flow? Might trick the sensor to think it’s colder so it stays on longer? Idk. I wish you the best of luck and I hope that helps
@@thewholesomegrail6722 Here’s what I did, and it’s working very effectively. I dropped my water level down about four or five inches to allow less water volume to heat and also more surface agitation from my filter. I put my heater at 87 degrees Fahrenheit and mounted it at a slanted angle directly in the suction and flow of the heater. So far so good, the white spots that were on my neon tertras are completely gone and no other fish have any spots.
@@TCS_Aquatics that’s so awesome! Keep the heat there for a few days to make sure the ich can’t reproduce and you should be good! Nicely done!
It works! I can see the ich slowly disappearing on my fish! Amazing :)
This just blew my mind. There's nothing else I can say.
I think I heard this from you a year or two ago after chemicals were ineffective and I started googling. I can confirm it works, twice. I think I introduced it with new fish each time, not had ich for years previously. 87°F is ~31°C, we usually have weeks at a time 5°C hotter than this in summer, so I know it wont hurt my fish for a short period.
If you didn't know, 86-86F in Celsius is 30-31c. Have a lovely day.
Thank you dear father fish for saving my fishes from this ick massacre. I lost 3 of my fishes and in the brink of loosing all and i found your suggestion and it saved my rest of fishes.. thank you fish god 🙏🙏
*losing -not “loosing” :)
When my fish had ick 2 months ago, I was raising temperature gradually by 2°C a day. I was planning to raise it from 24°C to 30°C , but in my case 28°C (~82.5°F) was enough to get rid of them, didn't even need finish at 30°C. My fish had only about 1 to 2 "tumors" on themselves, so I believe that it was so effective because I noticed early.
Also for some reason it only infected my Tiger Barbs, but my Black Neon Tetras in the same aquarium didn't catch it (just like in this video on 3:35, those Tetras seem uninfected). Things be weird sometimes.
Anyway, this treatment definitely works.
It’s true! I gave it a shot in my 500 gallon after bringing ich in with feeder fish. I didn’t lose any fish and the fish were happier and more active than ever! Great advice! 🙏🏾👍🏾
This has the be the number 1 question on all Fish Aquarium Hobbyist social media pages. I know pet stores love selling people chemicals to treat ick. Every time I see the question, almost every reply says you have to treat with some kind of chemical. I am a strong believer that stress leads to weak fish which lowers their immunity much like when people get sick. If you have a strong natural Father Fish tank, you have strong and healthy fish. It's interesting when you go fishing in a pond and catch a fish you don't see Ick on it, but in a gravel aquarium fish die all the time from Ick. It just makes common sense to make a Father Fish tank. Unfortunately Common Sense is not so common. :(

Got 2 Angels ready to breed... there separated, was going g to put them together, and noticed ick,! Thank you for your advice. I've lost a whole tank before and I was devastated.
I run a Discus tank completly on filtered rain water to keep it as natural as possible no declorinators ect.
I run anoxic filtration in my sump 36 bcb baskets.
I also move water through my sand bed slowly to keep it from going anaerobic
I de-worm 3 times a year.
Just recently used this approach. Works as explained. Bonus on the explaining of the life cycle of this scourge. Thanks 👍
Thanks!
best fishtuber ever
🙏
I am so grateful, this has been helping me a lot. I am so happy I found this channel.
Wish I had seen this about ich 2 year ago before I was convinced by a shop to buy chemicals all it did was create more problems I will never use chemicals agsin I got through it with out losing any fish in the end I figured out how to do it the same way as in your video thanyou father fish for another helpful video
Thank you for all your knowledge and help
Thank you. I am starting a dirted tank on the fly. I have rescued fish that need a better home, and the mire I find, the more your videos help. Thank you!
Some good things to keep in mind. I have to remember not to put medicine in the planted tanks !!! Once again both my aquariums are empty, even of plants, save for the rotala plucked from the riverdrain nearby. Planning to set up a simple nano fish aquascape for the 2 ft long aquarium. Albino cories , Green Neons ( if I can find them ) , and maybe honey gouramis
This worked great for me. I have 3 natural FF deep substrate tanks. In my 29 I have a female Betta, a few Corys, nerites, a couple of platys, some neon, black neon, and glowlights tetras, and some cherry barbs. Temp had been 78-79. Earlier this week I saw one white spot on my female Betta that I thought might be a grain of sand. That evening I came home and saw a glowlight with a spot. I turned the heater all the way up and fed the tank some finely chopped garlic (fermented in salt). All the fish ate at least some. In the morning, the temp had maxed out at 85 so I threw a blanket over the tank to keep the heat in. Some more glowlights and black neons were getting spots, the spot on my Betta was gone. I've had the temp steady around 88-89 since then, and every 12 hours there are less spots. This morning I am counting only 2 spots total on 2 black neons. No new infections are appearing and no fish are acting sick. I expect to see no infection at all 12 hours from now. I am a believer. All my tanks will stay at 82 degrees from now on. Thank you Father Fish for saving my tank!
just read your comment, i also have corys, a clown pleco, bettas, skirt tetras,neon tetras in a dirted planted tank. i just noticed yesterday a couple of white spots on my tetras and i am about to go get a heater to increase the temp. have your plants been affected by the temp, i understand raising the temp is way better for them than dosing them with chemicals. I see this response you made was about a month ago,do you still hold your tank at 82
@@sandies1703 plants were not affected at all. Yes I have had all my tanks at 81-82 ever since this happened. Raise temps to 87, it will get rid of the ich. Keep temps up until you have gone 5-6 days or more without seeing any ich spots on the fish. This may take a couple of weeks if you have a lot of fish in the tank, but don't panic.
RIGHT THERE at 12 minutes, you answered my only question of concern about this method of tank management. I was worried that bringing in “gunk” from the natural world would introduce parasitic life forms that could be harmful to my fish. Thank you!
Excellent video! I love the way Father Fish explains everything!
What a wonderful amount of info Fr. Fish!!! So wise❤
Your lessons are similar to Ernst Götsch. He works with syntrophic agroforrest. It's a kind of agriculture where you let's Nature acts freely. As a result, you don't need to irrigate, to fertilize and to pestilize. And the production is better than monoculture ones. Amazing! ❤
Great video Father Fish! In the past I was successful with your temperature + garlic remedy for ich
Thank you Father fish 🐟!
You saved my pond and aquarium. Thank you so much!
Just discovered your channel in a search for a nice down-to-earth instructions on how to get rid of these nasty buggers. Thank you Sir.
Thank you! Yeah, the solution is so simple.
It's super convenient you made this video after my post on discord thank you man
Thamk u sir you saved my fish bought some new mollys and theu got ick in a community tank tried some salt my fish store rols me about lost sone fish i did a warer change took out the salt and tried tour method saved my fish thank u sir
Ever since I started using this method, I have not had Ich. I have friends who constantly battle it and won't switch to this method. I keep trying, but they keep resisting.
Thank you Father Fish!
Last time i had Ich in my tank, i went HAM. Cranked up the heat as well as a 150% dose of salt. Cleared up real quick!
Thank you for making this video! I was worried about raising the temperature to 87 with goldfish, because they are not tropical. I did it anyway and the fish tolerated the heat just fine. They even seemed happier. After raising the temperature for about 6 days, the Ich is completely gone and the fish seem extremely healthy.
Has ich become more resilient to treatment over the years? Anyway, great advice on a nasty problem 🐟
I just noticed some white spots in my neon tetras and black neon tetras. I have a heater but it's a preset heater that maintains 78°+2F. I ordered an adjustable one just now. Hopefully I get it in time.
Hi father fish I'm from philippines thanks for this piece of advice. I've noticed that some of my neon tetra have few spots on them maybe 3-4 spots and currently they are in my 15 gal planted aquarium. Good thing I that I have a heater right now and I hope it will works for my neons because I have no plans of using chemicals in my tank.
Thank you,my betta had one spot the next day of getting him,i saw one of your video's on ich so i crancked up the heater it took a few days then it has gone ,and casper is doing well and it hasn't returned. Thank you.😊😊
exelente gracias saludos desde venezuela
This will be interesting. I’m excited.
This week I suddenly noticed my fish were all gathered at the top breathing hard with white spot on their bodies. I immediately started using the typical melafix and pimafix since I have plants and snails I can't use products like maracyn and ich-x. I wish I knew this sooner I unfortunately lost some corys and rummy nose tetras these past 5 days but the others who remain are finally recovering 👍. Raising the water temp to 87, adding an additional air pump for flow to make up for the oxygen loss due to heating up the water and dumping some of the "garlic tea infusion" trick you shared in another video seems to have helped more than the herbal oil alternatives API sells. Everyone was scattered and stressed on the water surface using plants to hold them up there. in a matter of 3 hours after adding the "garlic tea" and some of that garlic for them to directly eat they finally went down to the middle of the water level, then over night they made their way down towards the bottom, today the rummy nose that remain are finally schooling together again and exploring like they used too. The catfish aren't going crazy anymore shooting up at the surface for air and back down over and over again things are looking up and as they stress less I do too in return. Thank you for your aquarium wisdom without it I'd probably would've lost all my fish 😭
I’m sorry you lost some fish, but, I’m glad it’s over.
Hello Father Fish. Could you please make a Video about planarias? 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sir you are one whole Fish library .. Cant thankyou Sir ❤your advice saved my fish 😊❤ Appriciate it 🎉😊
Thank you father fish! CZcams recommended this video right when I needed it!
Que buen video. Claro y directo. Muchas gracias!!!😊
Great video FF
Another thing to remember is to increase aeration while the temperature is high. Warm water doesn't hold O2 as well as colder and the fish have already suffered damage to their gills by the time you see white spots. Also one of the first signs of Ich is the fish hanging out at the surface to breath. I don't have any inverts so personally I've always used Coppersafe and kosher salt
ich is everywhere. especially when we buy new fish from store.
as long we keep the fish nicely, fish immune system able to recover and protect.
on my experience as keeping tank on my room. mature aquascape is key.
methylene blue or any other med make fish more stress.
when you life on tropical country don't use heater. water temp warm enough for med.
I have a 80 gallon discus tank with bandit cichlids. They happen to have ich and white spot. I used meds but didnt help much.
I have my tank on 28 ish temp. Just put it up now with some salt. Had them since 4 years now and have a bond with them. Hope it works. Thanks father fish love your clips.
temp needs to be 30c+
@@FatherFish have done it. Will update soon. I love your enthusiasm. Reminds me of my late father who loved the hobby and got me into this too.
Bless you sir. Will share results ❤
Thanks for great information. Regards from Pakistan 🇵🇰
amazing video. all i can say is keep this kind of content up if you can except do other problems. this was truly an amazing video. i also noticed that too that ich doesn't happen as much in a natural tank but my only thing i truly P[O-0-0;wonder is if those ponds that you showed for example get ich. is that possible? I feel like the natural system could knock out ich pretty easily. you don't see fish in the wild get this often that's for sure.
true. Most sickness occurs in "clean" tanks with little or no microbial activity.
And while using the heater to 87F should i leave in or remove the sponge filter from the tank ? Is it safe for the benefitial bacteria on the sponge filter? Thank you
Thank you for sharing your knowledge:)
This video helped me a lot 😊
Great advice father fish🙏🙏just one question please,I have noticed very small white snail like slivering on tank glass,touched it with finger and can feel hardish surface,never seen anything like this before.please can you help me,no white spot on fish🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧
probably baby malaysian trumpet snails.
Thank you
I love you.❤
I just got home from the pet store and pilot a heater in the tank after setting it to 87 degrees. I noticed Ick yesterday. I’m hoping everything does ok.

Can you do a video for intestinal worm? 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks from Italy ❤❤❤
feed fresh crushed garlic once every few months to control internal parasite.
@@FatherFish thanks Father Fish ❤️❤️❤️
I always just chuck a bunch of salt in however it should be noted if you have corries if you put a lot of salt in they will die
Great vid ff. I have cured ick a few times using your methods and I've been very happy with the results. I forgot the exact temp you liked so..
I watched this vid and it is a real gem! Ty for all your support :]
You are a wealth of information.. Thank you..
I wish I could report success but heat hasn't worked for me yet. I brought Ich into my planted tank by not quarantining 4 Otos, two Otos succumed to Ich, other fish not shown any signs of Ich till now. I've had the heat at 86F for 3 days at first two days showed improvement in the sick Otos behavior and reduction in spots to only 1-2 tiny spots per fish. Day 3 I wake up to Ich spots all over my rasboras and gourami.
I've got Ich-X but am very wary of using it due to my plants and blue dream shrimp. I may have a heat resistant strain of Ich tho and I'm afraid since it is replicating on the fish at 86F I'm just wasting time waiting any longer.
Previously answered
Awesome video...thank you so much !
Glad you liked it!
Woke up this morning to both of my female battas with white spot/ick
I knew the salt trick but not the raise the temperature, my take is a 20G put in a pinch of salt and put the temperature up,
I would love a video on how to make a natural tank for neocardia shrimp!
One of my corys got stuck between the glas and the dragon stone. most likely injured itself and was highly stressed.I freed him ASAP, but a couple days later, i see it scratching itself on the ground all the time and two white spots on the fins. tried catching the lil fella to isolate him in a broadband medicine setup, but he's plenty active and i'll probably do more harm than good trying to catch him again... guess i'll try to increase the temperature for a few days. But i also have blue jelly shrimps in there :( serves me right for giving everyone so many hiding spots. thanks for the recommendation
Try using a large net to trap him
I got a new tank... Added guppies and Pladdy fish. ... Theyre living in a 10 gallon ...I added them on day 2 water from the faucet. With 3 water plants and the water the place gave me that came with the fish and water they gave me with the plants from the tank. On about day 5 I got a female Betta to put in the tank too... I had some tank water from their in store tanks and sand from the river close to my house. I'm working on having them for a month now. Everything seems great. Everyone is happy. Only issue I've had is maybe the brownish algae I have .. but maybe that's from me not having the proper size filter? The only reason I can see it is because I have white rocks ... And they have a brownish tint... I don't mind it .. but I'm not sure if it's unhealthy. And can I add a sucker fish to clean it... If so what works the best. I'm going to start cleaning my filter once a week or shouldn't I? . I purposely got a filter for a 6 gallon tank instead of a 10 gallon tank because I was initially going to get a male Betta only and I didn't want the water pressure to be too high...... But I changed my mind on the male Betta all together and decided on getting the fish I have.... I only have maybe 6 gallons of water in it... And maybe the brown is from the river sand..... I don't know .. I'm going to clean the filter on a more regular basis and see what happens over the next month but I don't want to over clean it either. . Fish seem happy and healthy as is... Just not sure about that slight brownish algae
Ignore the brown algae. Add more plants to compensate. The less you clean the filter the better it will work.
Now I'm thinking about getting a extra heater to have on hand if I get ick so I can quickly raise the temperature.
Definitely a good idea to have a backup 👍
Hi Father Fish, I am trying this treatment. I have had the temp at 87-88 degrees for three days. One platy had ich spots reduce to just a single spot. One platy had a single spot that has now increased to several on the tail fin. No other fish have signs of infection. How long can I continue at 87 degrees? If you have time for a response I do appreciate it.
I was trapped in the crowdstrike delta outage all week and got home to fish with ich starting. Hopefully the heaters can catch up to setpoint and the fish eat the garlic pieces.
I love the perfect timing of the add at “nasty little b-“ 😂
I have 2 gold panda lyretails and 1 sunburst platy that have a supposed temp range at a maximum of 80F and 78F respectively. Will it truly be okay for the fish to be in 87F water for three days?
Platies tolerate temps well into the 90's.
Thank you for such detailed video about Ick
Father fish im a expert aquascaper 15 years in the hobby not so much with fish just high tech co2 and plants i had a power outage while i was away 2 days ago for 8 hour's bio media and heater were off its winter here in Australia. Gonna do what you said 🙏

I had a breeding pair of tiger Oscar’s and lost them to dropsy
What is your treatment for dropsy..❤
Dropsy is internal bacterial infection, ty[ically in the gut. Crushed garlic and salt can cure it if the fish is still eating.
I have ich in one of my tank
I raise the. Temp up to 32 celsius
I hope my fish surviving this parasite❤
Hi Father Fish. Do you have any or had water fleas, Cyclops etc? in your tanks. I have collected some pond water which was intended for a new set up but due to the for and against these critters I am somewhat concerned. Many thanks in advance of any help and a thank you for all of the videos I have been watching here in Kent England.
They are perfect especially with small fish
Pl advise whether heater will affect plants.
it will not
Brilliant
Weird that you put this up here today because I found one of my tetras with it. I checked out every other fish and they were clean so I just raise the temperature and unfortunately for that tetra it’s gone toilet bound thank goodness they’re only three dollars.
Bless you too FF :D

buenos dias padre puedo poner barro y arena en un acuario de goldfish orandas
Hello Father fish. So have a newly settled planted tank. Its definitely not sttled in its way yet.
But i have a ich problem that has occured about 7 of my fish have spots. This is the third day i have raised the heat, from 76,80,82 now 87 degrees. How do you tell if the ich is falling off. The white spots are waste correct so it wouldnt dissapear until healed correct.
Should i leave the heater on for more days. Ive feed them some garlic in there food....they are active and eating well.
Thank you
Question for you... I have Always treated pretty much anything over the years with aquarium salt and copper salts... With 50% water change every other day for a week... What do think about that? It's always worked for me for whatever reason... Obviously it's only happened due to me not quarantining new fish and adding them to a established tank...
From the mid sixties toxins have been used to control undesirables in the aquarium. Copper is one such toxin. Salt is not. The use of salt is ancient for removing perstilents. Both, however, create stress for higher order plants and animals.
