It depends on where you read I think.
some sites say that it is used to generate a thicker slime coat.
others say that it is used to kill the parasite.
either way it doesn't have a 100 percent kill rate.
the only way that I am aware of to definitely kill it off out of your tank is hyposalinity and or no hosts for at least 4 weeks.
