the safest ich med for scaleless fish and sensitive fish is
Kent Marine RX-P.
It is totally safe and is highly effective.
I would highly recommend it. It is safe for both salt and fresh water fish, so can be a very useful tool for fighting ich.

Heres the product info:

Rid Ich + I've seen suggested many times for tanks with clown loaches. Tetras and cory's I've both had treated with maracyce, although I've been told later that it might not have been the best mediation to use.

Quick Cure

I use 1/4 dose every other day, with 20% water changes on the days between, for 2 weeks, no exceptions.

1/4 dose because of plants(1/2) and Tetras(1/2).

Little fish,
Quick Cure contains copper salts.
Without a doubt, no dosage of copper is safe with loaches!
Copper can kill rapidly certain fish, such as loaches, rtbs, and cories.
Never use copper on scaleless fish, you are askin for it.
I wouldnt use that stuff anyway, its worthless and doesnt work imho.
Kent Marine RXP is the best.
Rid ICH + by Kordon is also good I have heard, however it is unavailable in Canada due to some ingredient in it being declared unsafe by the fda.
