A couple of times when I have added new fish to my large aquarium, I have ended up spotting illness.
To stop it in it's tracks and save my fish I have tried the parasite clear medicine. It really does an excellent job. Jungle labs carry many fine products.

Pros: very effective

Cons: none

Parasite Clear Tank Buddies has saved Goldie several times. We have learned out lesson. For some reason whenever we have bought another fish for Goldie, they always make her sick. We have never had an additional health fish. They always give our Goldie parasites. Parasite Clear Tank Buddies clears the parasites in about three days. We keep a vigilant watch and make sure it is working; you can actually see it work as the parasites become less and less each day. The only problem we have is that we have a very small tank and we have to remember to half the tablet - no big deal - but a small inconvenience. Like this product for sure!

Pros: Worked Every Time

Cons: Watch for tank size; may have to split tablet

This is one of those Meds that are a "Must Have" in my fish kit.
The majority of goldfish you see in the Pet Stores always seem to have some health issues going on,so when I do buy a fish,Parasite Clear is a great choice to use in your hospital tank to make sure that the new fish aren't going to bring any nasties to the fish you all ready have. People often do lose fish because of acclimating wrong,or actual parasites,etc.,because they don't quarantine or treat first.

Pros: safe enough to use as a precaution for your new fish

Cons: none

I am quite pleased with this product. The first time I had a fish with ick, it cleared it up right away and prevented another immediate outbreak. I did have to use it again since ick affected another fish, but it still worked well, even though I didn't take out some of the water as the product suggested. I have had aquariums a long time & overall this is by far the best product I've used to get rid of it.

Pros: Works

Cons: When it comes back, have to do more for it to work

This worked great in our goldfish tank. In March when our baby was born, we decided to buy a new goldfish for the tank, since we put the tank in her room as a night light, and they are now her fish. And the fish we got must have been sick, cause within a day all the fish were sick. We used this product as directed and it worked great. We didn't loose any fish and they are all happy healthy today.

Pros: It worked great

Cons: nothing
