Will Easy Planter be stained by Ich-X?

[MDoc]

Does anyone know if Ich-X will stain Easy Planters?

The bottle says it might stain decor, and I know some silicone will be stained. Some people have had mixed results with driftwood.  I can't seem to find anything about Easy Planters though. Maybe it's too new of a product to have a lot of use cases.

Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.

It can stain but have never had problems with it staying anything in my tank

I would remove wood and easy planters if I were you

@CoryJust curious if you've done (or know of any) product testing in this regard. (Very sorry to tag you. If that's out-of-line or against the rules, please feel free to remove.)

Appreciate it.

I've never had a problem with it staining anything in my tanks other than silicone. I haven't seen any planters stained at the shop yet. I think the only time I've ever seen it stain something is when concentrated, like dropped on carpet, shirts. So maybe directly on decor not diluted in water?

Well, it's in. Will let you know if I notice anything.

And if they're stained, hey, I was thinking about getting a bunch more anyway!   Even my wife (who tolerates my hobby) thinks they look great. 😁

Thanks.

Good news!

After 2 treatments with Ich-X (according to label directions), all Easy Planters have come out unchanged and unstained.

Victory!
