KEY BENEFITS OF PRODUCT

• Treats marine ich (Cryptocaryoniasis) and marine velvet/gold dust (Amyloodinium).  Safe for corals and invertebrates, controls Fungal Issues with effective treatment.
• The non-stained formula ensures no discoloration of aquarium silicone or live rock. 
• Controls common external fungal issues (saprolegniasis).

• Ich-X Saltwater Treatment comprises a proprietary formula of water and formaldehyde (less than 3%).

• Avoid using Ich-X SaltWater Treatment with other medications or sulfur-based water conditioners. 
• The product may cause stress to some invertebrates; monitor them closely during treatment. 
• If severe stress is observed, perform a 50% or larger water change immediately. Always ensure proper dosing by calculating the actual water volume in your aquarium. Do not allow the product to freeze, as freezing can render it harmful to fish.

• To treat, dose one (1) teaspoon (~5 mL) of Ich-X® SW to 10 gallons (38L) of actual water in the system. Care should be taken to avoid overdosing, and the addition of aeration during treatment is always helpful.
• For Best Results: (1) always treat in a separate quarantine/treatment tank, (2) remove activated carbon from filters and clean or replace mechanical filtration media (do not stop filtration!) (3) make at least a 30% water change using your premixed saltwater before each addition of Ich-X SW® (use ClorAm-X® to condition the tap water when making your premix), and (4) repeat treatments at least every 24 hours, but no more than every 8 hours when accelerating treatment, depending on the course of the disease. Treatment should continue for a minimum of three (3) days beyond the visible signs of the disease. For use as a short-term bath (dip), add two (2) teaspoons (~10 mL) per gallon of water and expose the diseased fish for approximately 30 minutes. (Refer to the Ich-X® SW Product Data Sheet linked below for complete details on this process.)
• DO NOT OVERDOSE: This means you should calculate the actual amount of water in your tank by multiplying the length x width x height and dividing by 231 to get the true gallons. Please also deduct the amount of space consumed by substrate (gravel, sand, etc.), rock, decorations or other things that are displacing water.
• WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW TO FREEZE – If you find crystallized material under the seal of the bottle when opening or noticeable clumps in the material when poured out, the product has been frozen and should not be used. When frozen, the active ingredient can become lethal to fish.
• Use Ich-X® SW to treat conditions related to ich and ich-related disease.
