Medicated fish food

[nivram]

Are any of these good? I know Spectrum sells Thera A brand of their foods. However I don't think its medicated. Anyone have experience using these types of prepared or store bought foods?

I have a pair of labouti wrasse and the female has ich. But she continues to eat really good. My thoughts are to run UV and feed her some type of medicated food to help her kick the ick.

I can't run copper because of the corals and I dont have a big enough QT tank to put her in.

But i'd be interested in medicated food in general for new fish that I get to help "clean" them.

Well not sure food is the trick. The methods you can't do are the proven one's. In talking to Seachem a few times they use a product called focus along with metronitazole (sp?)....They claim that when they feed foad soaked in those items it rids the fish of ich. I say they claim because I have never tried it. It might be worth a shot for you, but you should start the minute you notice anything, while the fish is still eating.
