I'm glad to hear Simon is better. Just a little piece of advice, the ick medicine is bad stuff. A lot of fish die from the treatment. A better way to treat ick and all sickness in fish is to buy FRESH WATER aquarium salt. It’s a lot cheaper than the medicine too. It also reduces stress and I use it with Drew (my betta). Read the directions but it’s easy. You probably don't have a heater for Simon, but if you do turn the heat up a bit. The heat and the salt will kill the ick and it's safer. If that fails, then use the ick meds.
