Be careful what you use for ich treatments. Some of the ones meant for freshwater will have copper in them and are lethal for most saltwater fish and invertebrates. Your best bet is to remove any infected ones, it is a parasite, not an infection.

Saltwater ich is actually a different strain than the freshwater one, and you don't want to raise the salinity. If anything, drop the salinity. Jacking the salinity will harm the eel more than any parasite.
