I'm in the 15% group, too. The only thing that worked for me was QT w/hypo and letting the display tank stay "fishless" for 7 weeks. I used a UV sterilizer in the QT tank, too. Thanks to the good advice of people here, some of my fish survived. Ich is a horrible death for an animal.
Sorry to hear what you're going through, cb. I do have equipment for a hospital tank that you're welcome to use if you'd like. We're in Bethpage, so it's not that far from you. Just let me know. Denise |

That makes 6 of us that have proved NSF doesn't work.
SANO, eh? That's not new and spawned something known as the "SANO (SayNo) Wars" on Aqualink years ago. It's one of the original snake oil's. I gave that stuff a thorough multiple tank, multiple fish trial and found it a failure.

There, in a nutshell, is the reason this kind of stuff exists. Everyone wants the easy solution, no matter how complex the problem. I fully understand that we'll never know if it works or not if nobody tries it, but someone made a lot of money selling magnets and electrical tape wrapped around PVC not too long ago.

Dex,
I have "pee in a bottle" for ya. Works well and does not need refrigeration after opening.  Chris and I have a promotional special for friends and family at only $59.99 a bottle. One bottle is all you'll need cause our pee-pee remedy can treat 5g or 500g with the same 1 drop. Buy now and we will throw in a free brine shrimp net handcrafted by cali-reef himself. |

The reason your buddy at NSF is saying that the med is the one that is making the ich multiply is because it... well... isn't. That's the natural life cycle of the ich. The ich would do that on it's own anyway. He is feeding you a plate full of bull dookey just so you will waste more money than what you have already. That med in that link is absolutely a seething smelly pile of hog hoe down heaven as well. These people are trying to get rich on other people's ignorance of the true and trusted remedies that actually work. Makes me sick to see and hear of chicken hoo ha like this. Hypo all the way for me.

Freed i didnt really buy anything he told me. It was like he read into my emails and answered by the info i gave him to try to make me feel like the product is doing what its "designed" to do. Its all a bunch of BS.
Dex i had a heavy night of drinking so ill only charge you 60.00 for my bottle. Its very concentrated and took alot to get it into the recycled NSF bottle! LOL Denise i missed your post yesterday and thankyou for the kind offer but im all set with tanks.

Another reason to try Hypo when all else fails: it doesn't cost anything. Who doesn't already have a spare tank lying around? give it a shot. I still say to just pull out the rock and inverts in your 125 and do it in there. You have a barebottom tank.

What about pulling all the fish out and keeping them in hospital tanks for 2 months?
(also I'd add Vitamin C and beta-glucan to whatever you are using) |

I just completed my 7 days with the No Sick Fish Ich product and it didn't work for me either. I removed my fish and sent them to the QT tank loaded with copper. The remaining fish are looking better already after 3 days. I guess I am the other part of the 15%. I lost five fish.

Well there must be numerous people out there that are using it with amazing success that don't even know about this thread. Hmmmm. Wish they would post so we could meet them.

Sorry Chris. I thought your tank was FOWLR. There weren't many corals in it last I saw.

Sounds easy enough, but there is a problem there. Had we not allowed them to sponsor, it could be said that we were preventing our members from exposure to a product simply because we didn't like it. The far better approach is to recommend that you, the purchaser check into anything before you add it to your reef. I don't believe in "bag-O-live sand," Zeovit or "Purple up" either, but if they wanted to advertise here, would it be right to deny them the chance to reach you, or deny you the chance to know they're out there? There have been sponsors cut loose from RC before, and it will undoubtedly happen again. I don't know right now if NSF will join that illustrious group or not. The simple fact is, we can't make your decisions for you. What might be horrible for your system may be great for someone else's. A simple guideline I like to follow; If it seems like it's too good to be true, it's probably too good to be true.

Christine if all wipes out im going to take a break for awhile. I still have the prop thing going though.
I dont know, 1 day at a time.KH6SAT i feel your pain. I learned about NSF here too. FREED its funny how not 1 single person has come to this thread claiming success. Maybe because they dont exist....... Larry i can understand RCs standpoint but if the failures mount then it becomes pretty obvious that it doesnt work and there sponsorship should be yanked. If Warren and i want to market our own urine in a bottle as ick cure and paid the monthly sponsopship fee would we be able to? LOL |

LOL There we have the complete other end of the spectrum. No promises on the outcome, but I'll bring up the worth of this product, and their sponsorship here to the powers that be.
