Medic

Medic is a highly effective 'reef safe' water conditioner used to control external fish parasites present in both marine and freshwater environments.

How Medic Works

Completely reef-safe, buffered to maintain physiological pH. Does not harm invertebrates and does not harm nitrifying bacteria. Many external fish parasites have very similar life cycles. In particular, these parasites have an “attached stage (trophonts), a “matured” stage (protomonts, a 'reproductive' stage (tomonts), and a 'free-swimming' stage (theronts/dinospores).

Most available treatments do not target the free-swimming stage of the parasite which is one of the primarily difficulties in dealing with these problems. Research with dilated protozoans has shown that the 'free-swimming' stage of parasites have remarkably consistent hatching times. We have engineered our product to be most efficient during this stage. Our conditioner targets the trophont stage of the parasite but is also disrupting the life cycle during the 'free-swimming' timeframe - when the oxidative component in the conditioner is particularly effective against theronts/dinospores.
