Comments: I used this product in a display tank with UV sterilization and Kent's Garlic Xtreme (i.e., with food) and my parasite problem eventually went away.
I say eventually because I used it two times in the same tank within a few days of each other. Knowing it uses formalin, I was rather concerned about using it any longer than the recommended minimum.
The first series, 5 days, I lost a Coral Beauty to the elements: bacterial infection, etc. However, I didn't have UV or garlic as additional measures in my first attempt.
The second "series," I fixed my UV filter (another story) and used garlic as an additional step. My fish no longer flashed after the 2nd day, so I stopped the Rally formalin treatment after the second day. As a note, I also did 10% water changes every couple of days during each series.
My seahorse and mushroom corals survived the 2-day series (i.e., items purchased after the first series of treatments when I thought the parasite was gone).
To be honest I'm not sure which parasite I had b/c I never saw any outward signs of a parasite except the repeated flashing (or scratching on the substrate).
During my treatments I didn't see any evidence of biological filter deterioration for both (e.g., ammonia/nitrites all zero). However, I do have 2 filters (drip and canister) on one 46G tank.
I would recommend this product with caution and would recommend other reef-safe approaches simultaneously. Formalin is a "probable" carcinogen, so beware!
Now, I have a cycled hospital tank, that wasn't available initially, and I plan to use it in the future :).
Hope the review helps!
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
