I put a dubious assertion tag in the "Predisposing Factors" section because this refers to the questionable idea that ich lurks in every aquarium waiting to be unleashed. This article disputes that claim:

This article states that while the ich is actually ON the fish, there is no way to kill it.
http://freshaquarium.about.com/cs/disease/p/ich.htm
However, the life cycle of ich requires the white spots to die while the children go to the bottom and multiply.
Or something like that.
Anyway, the treatments don't actually kill the adult spots, but their offspring for several generations in a row, and eventually the parent white spots attempt to procreate and die off naturally. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.103.133 ( talk) 16:14, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
I'm cleaning up the perceived original research. The veterinary article that I'm citing suggests quarantining plants for four days, presumably to break the cycle of transmission. Monado ( talk) 19:19, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
The terms are somewhat conflated on this page. Ichthyophthirius I believe correctly refers to the genus of the pathogen, and ichthyophthiriasis to the disease. For instance: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23565747 134.173.78.3 ( talk) 20:14, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
