I just got an outbreak of Ich, hopefully I caught it in time. I have my sick fish all alone in a hospital tank with no gravel. I had to take out the live plant, what should I do with the plant now?

Are you asking how to keep the plant alive, or whether you should disinfect it? biggrin.gif

BTW, what kind of plant is it?

How to disinfect it. It's a Brazil Sword.

You can disinfect it by dipping it in a bleach mixture of 19 parts water and 1 part bleach. Leave it in for 2 minutes, then rinse very well before putting back in the tank. You can rinse it in water with dechlor in it, just to be sure.
