Safe and effective treatment for marine ich in both fish and reef aquariums. No-ICH is the original, and still the best selling copper-free reef safe water treatment for Cryptocaryon irritans (marine "white spot"). We developed the original formula over 10 years ago and have continually refined it through the research of aquatic biologists around the world. No-ICH solves a major problem for Marine Fish Hobbyists, by enabling them to eradicate safely the marine parasite known as "white spot", or Cryptocaryon irritants, in FISH ONLY and / or REEF TANKS with equal results. No-ICH by Fish-Vet has solved these problems with a treatment that: Treats the water and eliminates parasites such as the "white spot" protozoan, as well as parasitic copepods, while not affecting any of your beautiful Corals, Anemones or other Invertebrates. Biodegrades after some 4-5 days, leaving no harmful residue. Does not harm Fish, Invertebrates, or nitrifying bacteria and no test kit is necessary during treatment. How does No-ICH work? No-ICH disrupts the life cycle of the Cryptocaryon irritans parasite during the critical free swimming stage while having no effect on the health of your marine fish, corals, invertebrates, live rock, macro algaes or nitrifying bacterial colonies. What is the life cycle of this parasite? The life cycle of Cryptocaryon can be conveniently divided into four basic stages. Susceptible marine fish become infected with the active free-swimming stage, called the tomite. The free swimming tomite has less than 12 hours to find and invade a host fish otherwise it will exhaust its energy reserves and die. If an invasion is successful, the tomite penetrates below the skin and transforms into the parasitic stage which is known as a trophont. The trophont actively feeds on the fish's tissues, twisting and rotating as it does so. It grows rapidly, doubling in size approximately every 24 hours. By 48 hours, the parasitic trophont is just visible to the naked eye, appearing as a small white spot on the fish. By the third or fourth day of infection, the trophont has attained 3 to 5 millimeters in length and about this time it exits from the fish and drops down to the substrate. Within a few hours the trophont has firmly attached to the substrate, forming a thick walled cyst. The cyst, known as a tomont, is the reproductive stage which will eventually give rise to between 100 and 300 infective tomites, thereby completing the life cycle. Of course, not all tomites are successful in locating and infecting a host, even under ideal conditions only about 5 - 10% succeed. Nevertheless, within a closed environment, Cryptocaryon can increase in numbers by approximately tenfold every six to eight days. This enormous reproductive potential explains the sometimes rapid build-up of infection levels in any closed system. Can No-Ich be used with other products in the aquarium? No-ICH can be used with phosphate and/or ammonia absorbents, but you will need to remove carbon from your filtration system as well as turning of your protein skimmer. Either of these will remove No-ICH from your aquarium before it can help. We also recommend not using antibiotics or other medications when using No-ICH.
