Posted	exodin
22-04-2006 10:08 by gavster	has any one used it? i have added to my tank to treat white spot and am worried about leaving my skimmer off for so long .
22-04-2006 17:41 by gavster	just been told by my local expert that exodin is no good for white spot an that if i just leave the infeceted tang it will get better and just to add a few cleaner shrimps. panic over!
24-04-2006 09:36 by Alan	Frequently reef safe remedies do not work but I would seriously question the comments of an expert that says leave it and the tang will just get better! Considering a single cyst can release over 1,000 potential infective parasites is it really sensible to do nothing and wait? I think not, at the moment I am trying the reduced salinity method this does stress the corals but it has had an effect on the parasites, ultimately though I may have to remove all the fish from the reef in to quarantine and treat them for white spot away from the reef and leave the reef fish free for at least 6 weeks to ensure all parasites are dead.
26-04-2006 18:37 by gavster	i set up a hospital tank and tryed to remove the tang but it was impossable to catch just went behind the live rock and left us both very stressed

Sit back and wait fish in all likelyhood will go for the food as they do this quickly put a net over the open end and remove bottle with fish inside. It doesn't always work but it is the best method I have found I have the joy of trying to catch 6 fish in a reef using this method at the weekend!
30-04-2006 15:39 by Sandie	I have recently added a couple of new fish to my established tank and now have a problem with Oodinium. I have been using Exodin, now on 3rd treatment and 2 fish have gone blind (not the new ones), I am not sure if it is the treatment or the condition that has caused this. If any one can offer advice I would be grateful.

02-05-2006 17:33 by gavster	from personsal experiance exodin destroys you tank ,but plenty of water changes ,i did a 30% water change every day for 4 days and my tank is just starting to go back to normal 2 weeks after the exodin.altough the nem has never seemed to recover but its not dead yet
