Hikari ICH-X Water Treatment 4oz

Product details

Hikari ICH-X Water Treatment 4oz (73214) is a water additive for treating common aquarium parasites and related conditions, including ichthyophthiriasis (“ich”) and other protozoan problems. It’s used in freshwater and marine (including “marine ich”) situations as part of a quarantine or hospital-tank approach, helping you address visible parasite outbreaks by dosing directly into the aquarium water rather than treating individual animals.

Features:

• Treats ich (ichthyophthiriasis) in freshwater and cryptcaryonaisis (“marine ich”) in marine aquariums
• Targets multiple ich-related conditions, including velvet (gold dust), trichodiniasis, and saprolegniasis
• Uses a less harsh form of malachite green compared with traditional approaches
• Works as a separate treatment when used after PraziPro
• Formulated with formaldehyde (as listed), which is intended to be effective against the target organisms in-water
• Designed for quarantine/hospital tank use and consistent redosing based on the product schedule
