Kordon - Rid-Ich Plus Disease Treatment 16oz

Rid-Ich is a combination of two powerful medications which have proven effective in the control of many diseases of freshwater fish caused by external parasites such as white spot disease, Ichthyophthirius, Costia, Trichodina, Chilodonella and saltwater external parasites such as Cryptocaryon and Amyloodinium. The medication can also treat fungal infections in fishes. Rid Ich will not interfere with biological filtrations, and can be used on scaleless fish.

Signs that your fish may be infected with these diseases include: increased respiration; excessive skin mucus; loss of normal body color; scratching on the tank bottom or on objects; lethargic behavior; presence of discrete white spots.
