100% organic? i wonder what's in it? i dont know of much organic stuff that would specifically target a specific organism of choice (like ich). honestly, im quite skeptical of most anything that is labelled "organic" nowadays as it is just used as a buzz word right now.

5% active ingredients [ multiple natural herbals containing Naphthoquinone

That stuff is bad news.....the warning label shows a fish belly up and the skull and cross bones. Very toxic to the environment. Its used for pharmaceuticals.

Sorry Scott, you have the wrong stuff...product of Kordon-aquaherbals
sold at fish stores, no pic's of belly up fish..skull or crossbones period
It has the same product you talking about...so why is this stuff used to kill Ich...I sure hope everyone reads this site you have posted and thanks for the info...I'll pass this on and I would like to know why this chem. or whatever it is, used in this product

Blaster only used one time, forget the rest of the week, left temp up [ 82 ]
so far no Ich

I'm sorry for your losses I'm very skeptical of anything that claims to be reef safe. I used a product to beat cyano about 10 months ago, and it killed 3 of my fish and two of my corals.

Never again!
