Stress will weaken the fish and give the little buggers a leg up but stress don't start ich. High nitrAte do not start ich. Parasites have to come from somewhere, new fish, new plants/ornament, cross-contamination with a sick tank, etc. Have you treated the tank yet? You have to move fast and keep up the water changes or the ich will overwhelm your fish. |
