Has anyone done this before? I have very high phosphates and am dosing Brighwells Phosphate -E( Lanthanum) , however I have also noticed some ich on some of my fish and saw on another forum about dosing peroxide to get rid of it. I would love to give that a shot to avoid catching all my fish. Thanks!

Never done both at same time. For h2o2, I do hybrid TTM. There is a write up on it and some of my results from doing it are in there also.

@Randy Holmes-Farley can more than likely tell us is h2o2 and lanthium can be done together, but imo, fish should be treated outside of dt. There is also the management route for ich.

Lanthanum may accelerate the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide into reactive chemical species:
