The only two reasons you're looking to buy this are A) your fish are sick or B) you're looking for quarantine meds for new fish. I've seen an alarming number of reviews here claiming this product "killed my fish." No, it didn't. Your fish were sick, thus why you went shopping for fish meds in the first place. The illness is the most likely culprit, not the meds. I also saw a review with a picture, and the tank water was completely clouded. That is not going to happen if you *follow the dosing instructions*. In order to cloud 40+ gallons of water, you had to have used half the bottle, or more, and have practically 0 water movement. Yes, it is white. Yes, you can see where it's going in your tank. No, it does not hang around if you have sufficient flow. The third and final complaint I'll address is the smell. Again, it's a fish med. You're not buying this to smell good, you're buying it to treat your fish. It's not bad, even if you don't care for herbal fragrances. Now, on to the meat and potatoes if why you're probably reading this; Does it work? Yes. My fish experienced an outbreak of ich. This is entirely my fault as I got excited and did not follow QT protocol. Not proud of it but it did. Upon noticing the symptoms, I immediately ordered the Herbtana, as it was the only one that could deliver next day. Normally I would use Ich X, but this was faster and I needed fast while I waited for my Ich X to arrive. In the day that followed, I lost 5 fish before it arrived including my longest living tank inhabitant, which was painful but I can only blame myself. I got the package and immediately began dosing procedure as directions indicated. I lost 2 more fish in the next 2 days, but not because of this product. They were simply too far gone. By Day 3, my remaining fish had a noticeable improvement. By Day 5, all white spots had vanished, even from my White Skirt Tetras which I assumed were goners because they had it BAD. One thing of note, I did crank my tank temperature up to 85 to speed the life cycle of the parasite: this is important. The high temp won't kill ich, but when used in conjunction with Herbtana it did eliminate the threat. Read the bottle thoroughly and follow instructions to the letter. This product doesn't actually kill ich, and it doesn't claim to. It simply strengthens your fish's slime coat and boosts immunity in your fish. That's it. It helps them fight of the ich themselves. Being that it is still present in your tank even though symptoms have subsided, continue use to the manufacturers directions. If you use it for a week or so after symptoms disappear, the ich parasite should die off on its own by then. To be safe, water change, wait a day, do another water change and administer Ich X, which does kill the parasite. Or, invest in a quality UV filter. In summary: Herbtana works. It's easy to use if you're not illiterate and have a little patience. Good luck, and I hope your fish recover smoothly. o7 Review: Herbtana healed our goldfish! - Our child won what we thought was a multi colored goldfish from the Spring Fair. We purchased a tank and all of the cycling needs to provide him with a healthy new home. The fish would barely eat and mostly stayed in a corner of the tank. His fins were always clinched and he rarely left the corner. The water tests and temperatures were excellent but the fish was not improving. He began to develop a dull and white caste over his body and we realized that he was likely suffering from something else aside from stress. We were not sure if the fish would survive but we wanted to do all that we could to save him. We found Herbatana online and were drawn to its use of herbal remedies and ability to treat a variety of skin/parasite conditions. We immediately began treatment on the day that arrived and followed the 10 day instruction plan. By day 4, our fish was actually swimming around in the tank a little more. We are sure if it was a result of the toxins being released but we noticed that he would somwtimes erratically dart across the tank and brush against the gravel. By day six, his color had lightened dramatically and he was no longer displaying the erratic behavior. His appetite had also increased and he was even had waste excretion. By the end of the 10day treatment plan, he looked and behaved like a completely different fish. He was well on his way to a full recovery and we continued to use the "preventative" treatment instructions. He has now been with us for 1 month and he is extremely active, social, and greedy! His body and scales are shiny and vibrant and dark splotches that we thought to be a part of natural pigment are completely gone. He sings with us and flutters around his tank all day. I never had good experiences with the survival of fair fish as a child and we thought that our child was going to lose their 1st pet. Herbatana healed our goldfish and gave us a happy and healthy addition to the family!! ## Features - MICROBE-LIFT/Herbtana is a unique, herbal, immune-enhancing stimulant, which reduces: skin flukes, gill flukes, Ich, Oodinium, Costia, Chilodonella and Trichodina. Parasitic infections are characterized by symptoms, such as: milky skin, flashing and heavy breathing. - Parasites are generally present on most fish at very low levels at all times. These are naturally controlled by the fish’s immune system. When stress levels increase, the ability of the immune system to respond to its requirement to control the natural level of parasites is directly affected. This poor response allows parasites to increase in numbers, thus causing any of the serious above mentioned health issues in the host fish. - MICROBE-LIFT/Herbtana supports the fish’s immune system, driving off the excess parasites. Since they cannot return to the fish during treatment, the majority of the parasites will starve without a host. - MICROBE-LIFT/Herbtana is safe for all aquatic life. It is a great aid to use when acclimating fish to a new environment. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07YVWCQJK | | Best Sellers Rank | #62,008 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #1,286 in Water Treatments | | Brand | MICROBE-LIFT | | Brand Name | MICROBE-LIFT | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 293 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00097121218940 | | Included Components | N\A | | Item Form | Liquid | | Item Type Name | Herbtana 16oz | | Item Weight | 16 Ounces | | Liquid Volume | 16 Fluid Ounces | | Manufacturer | MicrobeLift | | Manufacturer Part Number | HERB16 | | Model Number | HERB16 | | Net Quantity | 473.0 Milliliters | | Packer Contact Information | Enviro aquaria international \ enviroaquaria@gmail.com | | Pet Type | Fish | | Target Species | Fish | | UPC | 097121218940 | | Unit Count | 473.0 Milliliters | | Warranty Description | N\A | | country-of-origin | India | ## Product Details - **Brand:** MICROBE-LIFT - **Item Form:** Liquid - **Item Weight:** 16 Ounces - **Liquid Volume:** 16 Fluid Ounces - **Manufacturer:** MicrobeLift ## Images ![Microbe-Lift Herbtana 16oz (473ml) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tMVhLXfkL.jpg) ![Microbe-Lift Herbtana 16oz (473ml) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YZaWb9uEL.jpg) ![Microbe-Lift Herbtana 16oz (473ml) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tbjczL5AL.jpg) ![Microbe-Lift Herbtana 16oz (473ml) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61bcYVL1KFL.jpg) ![Microbe-Lift Herbtana 16oz (473ml) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61TItOVK-zL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Did what it said it would. *by R***. on 21 February 2026* An honest review from a long time aquarist: First and foremost I want to call attention to the fact that this product is a fish medication.

The first time was with a hippo tang, which was better after 5 days. The second in the before-after photos was a grueling 2 weeks with a purple tang. I’ve had tangs all die before when they get ich. It is unfortunate that it can’t be used with a UV sterilizer, carbon, or protein skimmer, but that just means lots of water changes. I used this in combination with Selcon food soaking. ## Frequently Bought Together - MICROBE-LIFT HERB16 Herbtana Immune Booster and Natural Parasite Remover for Freshwater and Saltwater Home Aquariums and Fish Tanks, 16 Ounces - MICROBE-LIFT ART08 Artemiss Immune Booster and Disease Treatment for Fish Health in Freshwater and Saltwater Aquariums, 8 Fl Oz - MICROBE-LIFT SBH16 Special Blend Aquarium and Fish Tank Cleaner for Freshwater and Saltwater, 16 Ounces --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/684357661-microbe-lift-herbtana-16oz-473ml](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/684357661-microbe-lift-herbtana-16oz-473ml) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-15*
