Quick Ick Cure

Has anyone used this Ick Quick Cure product? Does it work & are you supposed to use it only for 3 days, as it says?

I thought Ick treatment was longer? I bought some fish from Petco & figured I should setup a med tank and treat to be safe. I am on day 3 now & wonder if I should stop or continue?


How do you treat ick?

I've used it back in the day and it doesnt work ime, stick to hypo, copper or tank transfer. These are tried and proven methods if done properly

+1 to the tank transfer method.

Never used that, but copper works well.

If Quick ick cure which is malachite green, formalin works then it would be the first miracle cure, as many have tried many products and failed. Proven 3 method as mentioned above and in sticky and many many other threads, but still it's not fool proof.
