Anyone ever used Kent Marine Rx P for ich?

I'm using it right now (only stuff available in the city). So far it seems to be working but not as well as I hoped. I did take out my all my snails, shrimp, starfish and hermit crabs to be on the safe side. The ich seems to be held in check and has disappeared from all fish except the two tangs which where the original culprits in the first place.
The instructions are correct on the web site though, you cannot just dump it in and leave it. You need to watch the protein skimmer and empty it about 3 or 4 times and watch the fish as well. So far my opinion is about 50/50 right now, it's working but I'm still not sure of it.

I've tried this product on two seperte occasions. The first time i used it i got ok results. The fish quit scratching and specks went away. The second time it seemed to have no effect on the ick at all! Now i have learned to use garlic (Kyolic) saoked foods. I soak my seaweed selects, brine shrimp and formula one in this when i have an outbreak. Now, i feed soaked foods once a week as precautionary measure. It is totally reef safe and i reccomend it 100%. HTH
