Medic 30ml by Polyp Lab

Long story short, I got a sick juvenile Porcupine puffer. He had ich when I got him. I QT’ed him and treated with coppersafe, but I swear it almost ended him every time. After the 3rd round of QT…. enough was enough! I had pristine water parameters, RODI, cycled tank, UV etc with a system that cost me about 8,000 USD and was about to throw in the towel before I ordered this. I have a 100 gallon system with anemones, zoanthids, and soft corals only.I ordered online to avoid the heat from my LFS and this is GOLD! Literally saved me from quitting the hobby. I was not about to traumatize my fish again, and this was the final straw.Overall following instructions to totally be ich free I used around 3-4 bottles over the course of two months. Follow the instructions carefully and do not miss a dose! My Puffer was ich free for 1 week the first time, stopped dosing for 3 days it came back. I realized you have to treat this like an antibiotic, taper up, then taper down, be careful. At one point I did increase the dose to 8 scoops when the ich was booming (6 was recommended); but do at your own risk. With water changes treat the new water as well.Glad to say it’s been 6 months now and my ich is managed. I would recommend using this at the first sight of ich, the faster you treat the better imo. Now I always keep a bottle handy bc the seller took almost 2 weeks, then it came broken 😡. I had to go to my LFS in shame to buy. Stock up if you have a big tank or use a seller that has it on prime.

Bought a powder blue tang and didn't notice it had ick, killed almost my entire tank within days. had a couple fish left and started to use this. figured this would just be a hit or miss. It has actually stopped my wrasse and a sailfin tang from itching. Did 2 rounds of it first round 10 days added charcoal and let the tank sit for a couple weeks and noticed the wrasse scratching itself again. did a 15 day dosing and they haven't itched for weeks. Also added a UV and im running it 6 hours a day.

Medic is crystallized hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide can be effective against parasites in a reef tank but it’s has to be dosed consistently and stay at the same level for weeks.Polyplab medic dissipates in a matter of an hour or so, it is not effective against ich. An understanding of the lifecycle of ich and the different strains of ich will explain the claims of success.Most of the time people think the fish has cleared up from ich after dosing Medic but in fact the ich has just dropped off to replicate in the sand Bed. Or the fish were able to fight it off as it was a weak strain. Polyplab Medic does not work. Save your money and don’t waste time in saving your fish.I have a very hard time trusting a company that is prepared to sell such garbage

I’ve read mixed reviews and have tried multiple ich treatments and this is the only one to have worked for me. Followed directions to the tee and my fish are now looking a lot healthier within 3 days of treatment. Great to have on stand by and my corals don’t mind it its important to not let it fall on them, it truly is reef safe.

It works incredibly well to remove the white spots from my fish, it's amazing!
