ok I had a tank of tetras and mollies that had spots of ick. I treated by doing a water change… removing the carbon part of the filter as recommended… raising the temp a few degrees and adding 1 tbsp of aquarium salt per 5 gallons of water.

the next day, the ick spots were going. But I thought I should leave well enough alone for a bit to make sure the infection is killed.

day 2 and the ick is still gone, everyone seems to be doing well. no one got stressed from the addition of salt… so it seems to be ok.

Should I do a water change and remove some of the salt? Do I do a water change and replace some of the salt removed? Should I re-add the carbon to the filter? Should I just leave well enough alone for a few more days THEN do a water change and remove some of the salt?
I did disolve the salt before I added it. As I was doing the water change, it was disolving in the replacement water.
