Also, while I am here, I have a couple more questions regarding my system that are unrelated to the ich. Again, my system is a 180 gallon tank that has been established for more than 10 years. I have what I am estimating to be 250-300# of live rock in my tank, maybe more. The system has a what looks like a 40 gallon sump (not exactly sure, and the previous owner is no longer speaking to me, so….), but no refugium. The trickle-down area of the sump has a 15’x12’x5’ area filled with bioballs, and an area the same size filled with a carbon sack, phosphate removal sack and silicate removal sack. I am running a Berlin 250 gallon protein skimmer. My nitrates are pretty high (was one of the things that I tested frantically before moving the goby to the quarantine tank) – well over 150 ppm.
