Sigh. What a phenomenally bad idea. If you're between a rock and a hard place and facing the loss of prized livestock, then sure, this makes sense. Thousands of amateur aquarists throwing heavy duty medications in to a reef without even having a definitive diagnosis of what they think they're treating, however, is asking for trouble.

Best case scenario - C. irritans is completely resistant to whatever medication is in the ich food within 5 years and the people who really need this tool lose it forever.

This is an excuse to have lazy quarantine procedures.
