But I recommend this option.
Why? Cause it worked awesome for me 3 weeks ago.

I guess when I say it doesn't, is because it doesn't always. So then the times it does, was it the product, or did the ich clear up on it's own?
My Achilles broke out in ich last month, and I realized I'd been busy and forgot to feed them for a few days. Achilles didn't like that I guess.

So I rolled up some nori and vitamins, and fed the tank. 24 hours later, ich was gone. Does that then say ich can be "cured" by feeding?
If a product is advertised to work, and experience shows it doesn't do anything bad, then by all means try it. But, if it doesn't work, and the fish get worse, do you have a plan "B"?
So ya, sometimes these things appear to work, but did something else change that we can't see (chemistry, removal of some stressor) or did the compound ingredients really do something to the ich itself? Who knows.
