Again after the talk with Rich Ross last Saturday I started researching a number of things. One of them was the idea of a diatom filter (although he didn't specifically discuss one) to filter out among other things the ich trophozoite. He indicated that proper sized UV sterilizers are effective and that a filter that has a small enough micron size.
Enter the Diatom filter which is something I used on Discus tanks back in the 70s. While they are finicky and a bit of a pain to clean Marineland does seem to make a canister that works as a Diatom filter for around $50.00.
Anyone have any experience with any Diatom filter? Of course the side effect would be the clearest water ever....
