ive never used it myslf but using liqid garlic and soaking it in food once or twice a week is a good preventive towards ick. ick is a parasite and when the garlic is in the system of the fish the ick repel from the fish jsut like using garlic for dogs and cats for fleas its sort of similar.

ich medicines tend to be very powerful and sometimes can aggravate the condition. I would go the garlic and vitamin c route Anne. If you can feed formula 2 to the patient, he will get better, guaranteed! If my mandarin now eats that stuff, everyone will get hooked on it.

Most ich medications suggest your turn off the skimmer. It will make it overfizz.
