I am very skeptical of any marine ich treatments that label reef safe. Polyp lab medic is basically Metronidazole and Peroxide acids.
Metronidazole is an antibiotics. Although there are scientific researches show that hydrogen peroxide can kill some parasites, but marine ich is not listed in the paper.
Well it worked for my fish
Had it not worked I would'nt have suggested to use it.
I have a full tank of SPS corals and had full trust in the guy that told me to use it. Even when he said to double the dose.
