Hikari ICH-X SW Water Treatment 4oz

Product details

Hikari ICH-X SW Water Treatment 4oz (73314) is an aquarium water treatment designed to help manage common parasitic and related diseases in fish tanks, including marine “marine ich” (cryptocaryonaisis). It is used as a separate quarantine/treatment treatment approach to reduce disease pressure while maintaining water filtration and handling sensitive life-support equipment appropriately. Because livestock should be treated in a controlled environment, this product is typically used in a quarantine/hospital tank rather than in a display aquarium. Follow the label directions closely, including removal of activated carbon and not stopping filtration.

• Also used for Trichodiniasis and Velvet (Gold Dust)
• Includes treatment for Saprolegniasis
• Uses a less toxic form of malachite green compared with harsher versions
• Can be used after PraziPro as a separate treatment
• Designed for use with a quarantine/treatment tank and ongoing filtration
