    TIPS:

    Use with API PIMAFIX to synergistically treat a broad range of infections. MELAFIX can be used with all API products, including medications and water conditioners. Laboratory studies proved that MELAFIX is safe for even the most delicate fish species, including tetras, discus fry and scaleless fish like clown loaches. MELAFIX can be used with all marine fish. MELAFIX has been tested and found to be safe in reef aquariums containing invertebrates, such as live corals and anemones. Treating with MELAFIX will not harm the biological filter in freshwater or saltwater aquariums. MELAFIX is harmless to live aquarium plants. We recommend turning off the protein skimmer and UV sterilizer when treating with MELAFIX.

    Note: a slight harmless foaming may occur during the treatment.

    Warning:

    This product contains a chemical known by the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm.

    Not for human consumption or for the treatment of fish intended for human consumption. Keep out of reach of children. For aquarium use only.
