Ich-X 16oz

Enhanced and Safer Malachite Green Formula

Ich-X utilizes the improved Leteux-Meyer formulation, featuring a safer and more effective form of Malachite Green. This advanced treatment effectively addresses protozoan-caused diseases such as “ich” disease (ichthyophthiriasis) in freshwater fish and "marine ich" disease (cryptocaryonaisis) in marine fish.

Comprehensive Disease and Fungal Control

Ich-X not only treats ich but also controls various fungal issues, ensuring your aquatic life remains healthy and vibrant. Its proven formulation is highly effective and designed to minimize stress on your fish.

Safe for All Aquatic Life

This treatment is safe for use with scaleless fish, invertebrates, and plants if you find it necessary to treat the entire aquarium.  It is recommended that fish be treated in a separate, quarantine aquarium if possible.

Versatile Temperature Range

Ich-X can be safely used in a wide range of temperatures, effectively treating your fish down to 50ºF. This versatility ensures reliable performance in various aquarium conditions.

2. Perform a 33% water change on the aquarium 
3. Dose 5mL of Ich-X for every 10 gallons of aquarium water.
