Hi!

Well usually it is highly recommanded to underdose the medication with scaless fish as they are more sensitive... you should put 50-75%, still it also depend form the hardness and T° of the tank as these are also factors that can make the product less or more harmfull...
Cheers

tank update:
temp 30c
ph 6.5
ammonia nil
did a 20-30% water change just now.
added in some anti chlorine and blackwater.
the last time i added 10 drops of medication for ichthyophthirius multifiliis was yesterday.
all plecos look and behave the same as before.
they ate almost all the algae wafers that i fed.
nothing unusual happen...
any advice???
