I'm curious. Does anyone know what's in this stuff? Since FW and Marine Ich are 2 totally different parasites, I'm guessing it's something that boosts fish immunity or resistance?
Snake oil. They don’t list any ingredients. There I no such thing as 100% reef safe ich treatment

I'm sure it probably does *something* (that's what I'm curious about) since people see results of a sort, but I agree with you that there's no reef safe treatment that kills ich. So it's definitely not killing the parasite. I'm guessing it masks the symptoms by boosting fish's slime coat or something.

I read somewhere it has something in it that makes the ich not able to swim so new ich cant reach your fish. Its a 14 day treatment i believe. Ill check after work

Feed them well. Add a little garlic soak to the food (don’t know if it has any effect but my fish liked it) Prayer and time. Seriously if the other fish are eating well it helps them stave off illness.
