Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8

Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Works
Cons:	large dose size per gallon means it goes fast

Cleared up an ich outbreak I had.

Instructions were 2 capfuls per 10 gallon, (roughly 1mL per gallon) every other day for 3 days which would use up the average 2oz bottle in one treatment of a 60 gallon tank.

Probably not the most economical for people with large tanks.

Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Works as advertised, easy to use
Cons:	Pricey and uses a lot per dose

Cleared ich very easily. Did not require any tank changes, just drop in medication as directed. Medication is on the pricey side when you consider that each dose is a cap ful per five gallons. Not good for those without QTs like me. Used up pretty much an entire bottle on my 20 gallon for one outbreak.
