Freshwater Ich, Costia, Trichodina, Velvet, Chilodenella, Saltwater Ich

Specifications: Contains formaldehyde (11.52% formalin) U.S.P. grade 4.26% and premium quality zinc-free chloride salt of malachite green 0.038%. Made in the U.S.A.

Dosage: Use 1 teaspoon (approximately 5 ml) per 10 gallons of water. This produces a concentration of 15 ppm formalin and 0.05 ppm of malachite green. When used at the recommended concentration, 16 ounces of Pond Rid·Ich+ will treat 960 gallons of water. Before each successive treatment and the day after the last treatment do a partial water change of 25% of the water. For further instructions on treatment methods see Kordons Rid-Ich+.

Kordon Rapid-Cure Ich and Parasite Treatment acts fast to treat Ich infections, external protozoan parasites, and the side effects of parasite infection in aquarium fish. One drop per gallon of water relieves symptoms in just 48 hours. Safe for fresh and saltwater fish tanks.

• Fast acting treatment for Ich, protozoan parasites and fin damage
• Relieves surface itching and other symptoms in just 48 hours
• Safe for fresh and saltwater

Treats these symptoms:

• Ich: Small white spots commonly seen over entire body. Fish may have itching that causes them to scratch and rub against tank bottom, rocks or decor.
• Protozoan Fin Damage: Fins band or tail are frayed and may have missing edges. Appearance is eroded and may look opaque. (Sometimes referred to as fin rot)
• Protozoan Parasites: This condition produces a white or grayish film of surface mucus. Some infections may show visible worms, rapid breathing and flashing (rubbing and scratching while moving along the tank bottom).

Directions for Use: Shake well before using. Raise aquarium water temperature to 82-84°F.
1. Check your water quality levels before using to ensure that they are within acceptable ranges.
2. Remove carbon from filters.
3. Remove invertebrates from aquarium or pond.

Dosage:
Freshwater- Add 1 drop to each 1 gallon daily for all fish except those in the Tetra family (add 1 drop to each 2 gallons daily for Tetras).
Saltwater - Add 1 drop to each 1 gallon daily in a bare aquarium.

Replace filter carbon 24 hours following the final treatment.

MAXIMUM DOSE: 3 DAILY TREATMENTS.

If further treatment is required, complete a 25% water change before starting another treatment cycle. Treated water will turn blue during the treatment cycle. This is a normal and temporary condition that disappears in a few days.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Inner surfaces such as decorations and silicone may become stained by this treatment.

Note: Perform a 50% water change in case of accidental overdose or if fish show any signs of distress during treatment.

Active Ingredients: Triethylene Glycol, Plyvinylpyrrolidone K-29, and Malachite Green.

Warnings: DO NOT USE ON: Invertebrates, live rock, shrimp, snails, scaleless fish such as elephant nose and baby whales, or loaches. Do not use in reef tanks with live rock, live coral or anemones. This product is for aquarium use only. Do not exceed recommended dosage. May stain sealant and aquarium decorations.

Kordon Rid-Ich Plus is a completely safe, effective and economical Ich treatment in fresh and saltwater on a wide range of protozoan, crustaceans, and other invertebrate parasites of fish.

• Controls Ich and other external protozoan, dinoflagellate and fungal diseases of fish
• Powerful 2-medication combination
• Suitable for fresh and saltwater

Kordons Rid Ich+ is a combination of two powerful medications which have proven effective in the control of many diseases of freshwater fishes caused by external protozoan (single cell) parasites such as white spot disease, Ichthyophthiriasis, Costia, Trichodina, Chilodonella and saltwater external parasites such as Cryptocaryon and Amyloodinium. The medication can also treat fungal infections in fishes.

Rid Ich+ is recommended as the best chemical treatment for Ich, (white spot disease), having been originally developed decades ago for professional aquaculture, public aquariums, and government use in treating fishes. Other than refinement in ingredients, it has continued to remain as the foremost scientifically developed chemical treatment for Ich white spot disease. Efficacy is improved and the treatment time is often reduced when compared to treatment with either the chemicals malachite or formalin alone. Additionally, the Rid Ich+ formula utilizes the less common but also less toxic chloride salt of malachite green (this is the same salt used in Kordons Malachite Green).

The recommended treatment concentration of Rid Ich+ should be approached with caution, carefully observing the reactions of the treated fishes and ceasing treatment if any undue stress is noted. Remember, when the first outward signs of Ich (scattered spots) are noticed, the fish is often quite heavily parasitic in the mouth and gills - lowering the fishs ability to withstand additional stress. The weaker the fishes' condition, the poorer its response will be to any medication. Rid Ich+ has been shown to be reasonably safe for use on fishes which normally cannot tolerate malachite green alone.

Kordon Tidy Turtle keeps tanks and bowls remarkably clean and reduces those infamous turtle odors. This safe, effective water additive uses naturally occurring beneficial bacteria to break down organic debris in gravel and filters and remove sludge for a cleaner, healthier aquatic turtle habitat.

• Keeps tanks and gravel clean and improves water quality
• Reduces odors caused by foul water
• Breaks down organic debris and removes sludge

Tidy Turtle contains bacteria that have been specially developed to remove sludge and other organic debris from gravel, filters, tubing, and anywhere else it accumulates. Because it uses only naturally occurring and/or beneficial bacteria and does not affect pH (acidity/alkalinity), it is safe for aquatic turtles, amphibians, and other aquatic life. These bacteria are 100% non-toxic, non-pathogenic, and feed only on decomposing organic matter. In other words, they are not a health hazard to humans, fish, pets, plants, or wildlife!

Now the technical stuff: 4 ounces of Tidy Turtle contains more than 2 billion Colony Forming Units (CFU) of heterotrophic bacteria per milliliter, as well as the enzymes that help break down turtle waste products. These various species of bacteria consume carbohydrates, proteins, starches, fats and cellulose that build up in turtle habitats and turtle aquariums as the result of feeding, turtle waste, decaying plant matter and other organics. The Bacillus species in Tidy Turtle can function in aerobic and anaerobic conditions, allowing these organisms to function in the best and worst of turtle habitat or turtle aquarium conditions.

Made in the USA.

Directions: Shake well. Add 2 teaspoons (10ml) for every ten gallons of water (37.85L) directly into the water. Repeat dosage after 24 hours. Repeat the above steps bi-weekly or when wanting to remove visible sludge. To increase effectiveness, add directly into filter media, particularly activated carbon. Activated carbon is an excellent surface area for the Bacillus sp. bacteria in Tidy Turtle. Ultraviolet sterilizers should be turned off for up to a day after application.

Kordons Turtle Ramps provide simple, stable and easily cleaned platforms for aquatic turtles, salamanders and frogs to exit the water and bask as they would in their natural environment.

• Simple, stable and easily cleaned platforms
• Allows aquatic turtles, salamanders and frogs to exit the water and bask
• Designed to fit a wide range of aquatic terrarium situations

Turtle Ramps are designed to fit a wide range of aquatic terrarium situations and are easily adjusted for the depth of the water environment. Both ramps are constructed of a single piece of formed clear acrylic with suction cups to attach it to any smooth surface. Turtle Ramps can also be used in dry terrariums and will provide many reptiles with a multi-level platform for basking and regulating their body temperature.

Specifications:
Medium: 12"L x 6.5"W (3" Min. Depth)

Suggested Initial Installation: Place the Ramp against the side wall of the aquarium with the main platform located approximately one inch above the water level. Make sure that the ramp extends down into the water. Push the suction cups tightly against the glass to ensure a firm, stable platform. Remove the ramp from the aquarium to wash. Use dishwashing soap and rinse thoroughly.

Note: In many cases the Ramp will allow the animals to be close to the top of the terrarium. You should make sure that the heat source is a safe distance away and that the animals cannot escape.
