USAGE

- THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Product intended only for the treatment of ornamental fish with the so-called "white spots" and "velvet" diseases, mainly caused by Ichthyophthirius, Oodinium and secondary bacterial infections caused indirectly by these protists. Visible symptoms are white spots, granular lesions or fluffy layers of pale gray. They appear on the gills, fins and may extend to the whole body. Infected fish fins retract and try to remove the parasites by rubbing against the scenery. Those whose gills are very affected have an abnormally high respiratory activity, become apathetic and lose weight quickly.

- DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Shake each vial well before use. Follow this protocol:

Ensure a good flow and good water oxygenation. To protect the biological filter, during the treatment days, remove the bacterial support material from the filter. Run it in another aquarium if possible, or at least keep it moist with water in a container. Reinsert the support material on the days the fish are fed, after briefly rinsing it with clean water.

- PRESERVATION

Keep the vials in the original packaging away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
Do not use after the expiration date printed on the box and vials.
