So ive decided to treat my fish with copper because a couple of them came down with ich a couple of weeks ago and they haven't managed to shake it off so far. So my question is what should i do with my display tank for the 8 weeks while waiting for the ich to dye off? The bio load has been removed, 10 fish total, so whats the best way to keep the cycle up? Feed the tank fish food daily?

Any advice would be appreciated!

The tank will continue to sustain a cycle with no fish.However when you put livestock back into it,it may cause a spike it nitrates.So don't add all fish back in at once,go slowly!
