Au,

It can happen, it isn't all that serious unless the fish starts getting pretty bad. They also have immune systems that can inable them to fight off lots of stuff. They can and sometimes will get better on their own. You are most likely taking the best course of action right now, adding more stress is not very benefitial to the fish. THey have been through a great deal already, an ick infection is pretty tough on them. Well I hope this made sence. I am pretty tired, long day, long work, mentally exhausting.
