Unique triple acting formula treats saltwater ich and other parasites and treats multiple stages. Can be used with most invertebrates with caution.
Works better than copper, yet leaves no residual metals or toxic byproducts.
Features: - A triple acting treatment for saltwater ich and other parasites
- Thin consistency
- Highly effective, works better than copper, yet leaves no residual toxic metals after treatment!
- Contains only natural ingredients
- Can be used with most invertebrates (with caution), if you have strong biological filtration, such as a sufficiently sized wet dry filter, and a properly adjusted protein skimmer (the hobbyist much take care since marine parasites are invertebrates RxP will stress other invertebrates read all directions below!)
- Contains no copper or carcinogenic dyes
- Can be used with Sharks, Rays and scaleless fish
- Does not cause lateral line disease, like metal based treatments do!
- An 8 oz. bottle will treat a 50 gallon tank for one full treatment (13 days)
Considerations for use: Notice: Use of RxP without a strong biological filter or without strong protein skimming will endanger invertebrates of all types and can even endanger fish! , (preferred biological method is a bio-ball type wet dry filter. (Weak methods include undergravel, Jaubert, and Berlin methods, the hobbyist is cautioned that these methods may not be strong enough to prevent difficulties). Protein skimmer must be adjusted daily for good foam production! High ammonia or nitrite levels and resulting stress may be experienced with weak biological methods. Product is necessarily strong because marine parasites are hardy, and caution by the user is absolutely required! Do not dose your tank and leave. You must observe the animals periodically during the day.
All Systems: RxP is not recommended for lionfish, stonefish or scorpion fish. Treated fish must be in a reasonably healthy condition for treatment to be effective and for recovery to occur.
Reefs: Product can be used with most invertebrates by experienced persons, with caution. Since marine parasites are invertebrates, treating them with this product will stress other invertebrates. Use with invertebrates carries a certain amount of risk. Animals most likely to have adverse reactions to the product are stony corals and colonial anemones (mushrooms), See label for details. Do not ever use with starfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, sea apples, medusa worms, nudibranches or similar animals
Prolonged use, indiscriminate use, use on weakened inverts or use without proper skimming or strong biological filtration can cause damage or loss. For this reason, use with inverts is at the risk of the user.
Directions: Important: Adjust skimmer daily for good foam production! Remove carbon. Raise alkalinity to 8 dKH or higher with Superbuffer-dKH. Shake well just prior to each use! Use at the rate of 2 teaspoons (10 ml or 2 capfuls from 8 or 16 oz. container) per 25 gallons (95 liters) of tank capacity every other day. Continue treatment for seven doses (13 days) minimum. See below for precautions. For maximum results, on off days, treat with Poly•Ox, as directed. Use Kent Reef Carbon after completing treatment to remove product and perform a major water change (>20%). As a preventative measure, treat the system for 3 treatments when adding new fish. Important: In reefs, also use Coral-Vite and Tech•I together with a calcium supplement to strengthen corals! As a dip: Use one capful per gallon of saltwater. Leave fish for 15 minutes or less. Observe and remove fish if rapid breathing or other signs of stress occur.
