Since my ick clear up I've added a tomato clownfish and a sailfin tang, neither of them developed any spots at all since being added.

Is my undestanding that Ich Shield contains Choloquine P. The use of CP in a reef tank is dangerous. 1 pellet in a coral and problems. Also the fish poops out the CP and zoaxantellas will die. So not very reef safe (I have seen corals and shrimps die on this), Fish only sistem might work good tho.

ICH shield does not have "CP". It is a form of it, but it is not pure. I use this several times during the week in my reef with no issues to coral...at all.

Glad to read but is not my experience, you need much more than 1 week to know for sure tho.
Good luck with ick shield, did not work for me
