EIHO Ich EX

White spot disease is commonly faced by hobbyist. White spot disease can infected the whole population of fishes in the aquaria. In planted aquaria, it can be difficult to add common Anti White spot medication, as it contains harmful chemical such as copper or malachite green. These harmful chemicals can kill sensitive fishes, shrimps and affect beneficial bacteria
In our retail store, we have been using EIHO ICH-EX to cure and reduce white spot disease outbreak in our planted aquaria.

CASE STUDY
White spots (ich) are found on new batch of fishes that we place into a 100L planted aquaria. Clearly, there are many white spots found on the body and fins. It will be difficult to remove all the infected tetras, so our housekeeping team decided to use EIHO ICH-EX. 

We add 5ml powder to a small cup. (2.5ml to 50L of water) Add in water and mix the powder. Not all the powder will dissolve immediately.


We add the ICH-EX suspension mixture into the tank directly.


Unlike, most other anti white spot medication, ICH-EX will not dye the water of the aquarium


After 24hours of adding ICH-EX, none of the tetras has white spot on the body or fins. The fishes appears healthy and is eating as usual. We add another dose of ICH-EX on the 3rd day to prevent further outbreak.
