ANTI WHITE SPOT

EIHO Anti-White Spot is a professional-grade treatment designed to tackle one of the most persistent and frustrating challenges in the hobby: "Ich" or White Spot disease. This formula specifically targets and eliminates the freshwater white spot parasite (Ichthyophthirius multifiliis), as well as similar external parasites that cause distress to your fish. It is an effective and safe solution for both freshwater and saltwater aquarium inhabitants.

The white spots you see on your fish's fins and body are actually protective cysts formed by adult parasites. If left untreated, these cysts burst, releasing hundreds of new infectious "theronts" into the water column, which can quickly overwhelm your entire tank. EIHO Anti-White Spot works by breaking this life cycle, ensuring that the parasites are neutralized before they can re-attach to your fish.

Why You Need This

We’ve all been there—you look at your tank and notice your favorite fish looks like it’s been sprinkled with grains of salt. Here is how EIHO Anti-White Spot helps you manage the situation:

• Stop the Scratching: If you see your fish "flashing" or rubbing against rocks and driftwood, they are trying to dislodge irritating parasites. This treatment soothes the skin and removes the cause of the itch.

• Clear the "Salt" Spots: It targets the visible white cysts (ciliates) that cluster on the skin, gills, and fins.

• Improve Breathing: Parasites often clog the gills first. This formula helps clear the respiratory pathways, reducing rapid gill movement and gasping at the surface.

• Prevent Mass Infection: Because the parasite spreads through the water, treating the whole tank with EIHO ensures that even the "hidden" parasites in the gravel are eliminated.

Expert Instructions ("The Easy Way")

Treating White Spot isn't difficult, but consistency is the key to winning the battle against the parasite's life cycle. Follow these simple steps:

1. Prep your tank: Remove any activated carbon or chemical resins from your filter, as these will "eat" the medication before it can work. Turn off your UV sterilizers as well.

2. Add the juice: Shake the bottle well. Add 1 capful (5ml) of EIHO Anti-White Spot for every 50L of aquarium water.

3. The Three-Day Cycle: Add the same dose on the first, second, and third days. This ensures the medication is present as new parasites hatch.

4. The Safety Check: On the sixth day, you can add one final dose to prevent a "rebound" infection from any late-blooming cysts.

5. Post-Treatment: Once the spots are gone, perform a 25% water change and put your carbon back in to clear the water.

Expert Tip: To speed up the parasite’s life cycle and kill them faster, slowly raise your water temperature to about 26°C - 28°C (80°F - 82°F) during treatment. This forces the "ich" to leave the fish's body sooner, making them vulnerable to the medication in the water!

FAQ

Is EIHO Anti-White Spot safe for my shrimp and snails?

While highly effective for fish, this formula contains active ingredients that may be unsuitable for sensitive invertebrates. If you have a reef tank or a dedicated shrimp colony, it is best to move the infected fish to a separate "hospital tank" for treatment.

Will this medication turn my water a different color?

Yes, you will notice a blue or green tint in the water immediately after dosing. This is perfectly normal and indicates the medicine is active! The color will fade naturally or can be removed with activated carbon once the treatment is finished.

Is it safe for live aquarium plants?

When used at the recommended dosage, most hardy aquarium plants like Anubias, Java Fern, and Amazon Swords handle the treatment just fine.

Can I use this in my saltwater/marine tank?

Absolutely. While the primary target is freshwater "Ich," it is also effective against similar external ciliates found in saltwater environments. However, do not use with corals

How quickly will I see results?

You should see a reduction in "flashing" within 24–48 hours. However, the white spots may take a few days to fall off. Remember: even if the spots are gone, finish the full course to make sure the water is completely clean!
