I think what some are failing to understand is if the fish are treated properly BEFORE they ever reach the DT, there won't ever be ich in the tank. So if your PH or SG fluctuates the fish just get stressed and not sick because there was a lingering disease in the tank. Ich isn't something that just comes out of no where because a fish is stressed, the ich shows up when fish get stressed because it has always been in the tank hosting the fish from the start. Ich isn't just something you have to deal with in this hobby if you have proper QT procedures, which is no small feat at times
