Default NLS

NLS distributor rep here...

Every store has access, and....every store should have stock.


On a side note...who has seen the new ich medicated/internal parasite food(s) from NLS, some stores now have it in stock. Feed it to your reef tank should you have any problems!

Can the ick medicated/internal parasite food be used as preventative measure as well, or should it only be used when symptoms start to show up?

Default Depends

I probably wouldn't continue feeding the food 24/7/365.

Personally I would use the ich medicated food when signs are present, and maybe for a day or 2 when adding new fish.

The internal medicine one I would do a round when adding new fish and use particularly on anything that you are having trouble putting weight on .

If this food touches the corals in a reef tank, will it kill the corals?

Yes only if ingested. As it's suggested to do new carbon and feed sparingly.

On another note, it's not an inexpensive food. It's like paying for medicine and food but at the same time. It does however have a pretty good shelflife. I think current stock expires December 2017.


Each medicinal food comes in 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm sizes too
