John M –
Follow all instructions! Kills ich fast!
Followed directions exactly. But I also put slightly less than the standard dose to account for increased toxicity due to higher water temperature (84F) for treating ich. It practically killed all the parasites within a day or so. So am now treating for 3-5 days more to make sure it kills any cysts that might be leftover somewhere. Remember, not to use sulfur-based dechlorinators or or will remove the medication from the water. I use 2-3 drops of hydrogen peroxide per 5 gallons of tap water, which destroys 5 ppm of chlorine and the remaining chloramine. It doesn’t detoxfy heavy metals but is better than nothing and is compatible with this medication during the water change part in the instructions.
Not so tasty. –
It helped me without losing any fish.
On the third day of using it, I saw that my fish were already cured. I did this for five days as a precaution.I applied it during the first five days and saw my entire tank turn blue, but the next morning everything was back to normal.

ICH X WORKS – AVOID API SUPER ICH CURE
ICH X WORKS!I have four guppies. The males are agressive darting swimmers, totally white in color, which made it impossible to diagnose their ich early on. One of the males started to exhibit slight pop in one eye. Then I noticed light spotting on the fins. I quickly ordered APIs SUPER ICH CURE, and began treating them right away.I turned off the aquarium lights, removed carbon from the filtering system, added the correct amount of aquarium salt, cranked up the temperature to 84 degrees, and followed all of APIs instructions to the letter. After using their 48 hour treatment method, the ich did not drop and die.I watched videos and read articles about ich. Most content mentioned that, “ich looks worse before it gets better,” but this is somewhat false information if you’re patiently following manufacture instructions. Yes, ich will progress and look bad even while medicating, but you should see a notable change in your fish long before the last treatment (if you’re warming the water etc. to excite the ich).While using APIs SUPER ICH CURE I ordered ICH-X , because the treatment was not going very well, and I wanted a backup plan. After doing all of APIs 48 hour SUPER ICH CURE cycles, there was no improvement. I was not going to follow APIs instructions, put new carbon in the system, and pretend that something good would happen. Things had gotten worse, all four fish were coated with ich (one of the females was very pregnant too). Somehow, the ich survived APIs regimen!I did another partial water change (half), and switched to ICH-X. It has a 24 hour treatment cycle schedule, instead of APIs 48 hour. After two days of treating my fish with ICH-X, the ich is gone. I am still going to continue treating them for a few more days, with water changes. But, it’s clear that the ich released to reproduce, and died when being treated with ICH-X. My female guppy gave birth last night, finally comfortable enough to do so after the ich detached from her.I’m not sure if it was product concentration (or APIs SUPER ICH CURE 48 hour dosing vs ICH-X’s 24) that made the difference, but it doesn’t matter. If consumers follow product directions and the product does not work, it’s a problem. API’s SUPER ICH CURE did NOT WORK when used as directed. ICH X WORKS!

Perfect remedy for ich
This is my go to whenever any of my tanks develop ich. It works fast and is well worth it. Doesnât kill or hurt my fish, hasnât killed any of my plants. The process itself takes about 3-5 days
Alessandro –
It works! Perfect productâ
I rarely leave a review, but I had to leave it here⦠This is fantastic and really works for Ick! I went to a fish store and they advised me to use Fritz, I took my Cherry Shrimps out of the aquarium to use the product, there were 3 left that I hadn’t seen, the product itself didn’t kill my shrimps, but it didn’t make Ick go away either, after 1 week using Fritz I lost 2 fish plus 5 platt fries. I did a big water change, put my shrimps back in and started treatment with ICH-X, 48 hours later 90% was gone, I continued with the product for 8 days, now my fish are back to bright colors and swim all over the aquarium again! The product stains silicone and some decorative pieces, so if there is a piece that you really like, it’s best to remove it.* The photo was after 1 week using Fritz, it improved a little, but after 2 days they were full of dots again.* The video is the aquarium 100% recovered and everyone is happy with ICH-X after 8 days.

A must have for fish keepers
I used to use seachem Paraguard as part of my quarantine process. Ich-x has now replaced paraguard. I recently had an outbreak of Ich in my quarantine tank. Paraguard would have taken too long to take effect and I couldn’t wait that long for this level of ich. Especially when treating rummy nose tetras that are notoriously susceptible to disease. Glad to report that the ich has mostly been contained. Be warned this stuff does stain.
