API Super Ick Cure 4 oz – Freshwater Ich Treatment

API Super Ick Cure is a trusted freshwater fish medication designed to treat Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich), commonly known as white spot disease. This fast-acting formula helps eliminate ich parasites while also helping prevent secondary bacterial infections that can occur when fish are stressed or weakened by disease.

Ich is one of the most common freshwater fish diseases and is identified by small white spots on the body and fins, flashing against decorations, rapid breathing, and irritation. API Super Ick Cure targets free-swimming parasites in the aquarium water while helping infected fish recover more quickly.
