  • The only brand I use for my tank
Item Package Quantity: 1
This medicinal treatment for fish is the only brand I use in my 125 gallon tank. It works very well. You must remove the carbon in the filter before using this product or it will be filtered out. Sometimes I have to use two treatments, but it is always worth the money. It is simple to use...I just mix the proper amount with water and add it to the tank. You will start to see results in days. If you value your tropical fish, this is an excellent investment. ... show more

  • Perfect for quarantining new fish
Item Package Quantity: 1
I add General Cure with Fin and Body Cure to one of my receiving tanks with new fish. dosing instructions are super easy, especially in a 10 gallon. This stuff works really well in eradicating a wide plethora of diseases and a great first step if you don't know why your fish is acting strange. It also does not seem to stress fish out as much as other products that I have tried. ... show more

  • Miracle Drug
Item Package Quantity: 1
Ready to give last rites to my Jewel Cichlid. Stomach so bloated I feared it would burst in the water. Bought this General Cure after reading reviews and comparing with other products. Wasn't really expecting much, but Holy Cow! This stuff is terrific. 36 hours after dissolving in the water (plus a little Epsom Salt) and the bloat was barely noticeable. Color had returned and the fish was no longer listless. Directions are simple and application is easy. Great product at a very reasonable price. ... show more

  • Works great for a general range of parasitic problems, but not Flukes.
Item Package Quantity: 1
Clears a general range of Parasitic problems in Fish, wouldn't use this on invertebrates. Although the package says it cures flukes I wouldn't go so far as to say it does. I use this to treat all of my fish before adding them to my display tank. It's easy to use and it seems at though my fish don't even realise I've added it to the aquarium. It doesn't kill the biological filtration, but you do have to remove carbon or zeolite if you have it in your filter because it will absorb the medication. It works great for deworming wild fish, and have used this for that purpose. I tend to buy the big canister of GENERAL CURE as all of my fish get quarantined before going into my display tank or any of my mature aquariums. It's an item you should keep on hand in your aquarium first aid kit. ... show more

  • Saved our favorite Koi!!!!
Item Package Quantity: 1
Our 14" blue and white koi named, Blue, injured himself while jerkily flipping around and partially exiting the water. If this behavior didn't occasionally continue and other issues show up we would have assumed the following was due to his injury. His mouth was injured when he initially jerked around and exited the water (a cut in lower lip and his mouth wouldn't shut all the way--NOT gasping) so his subsequent eating problems could have been attributed to the injury except he also gradually started to have issues swimming up and down. He'd get excited when he sensed food and would work his mouth like crazy but couldn't seem to aim to get the food, nor could he get all the way to the top or bottom. His lack of coordination gradually became apparent and just got worse. We could see the will to do the movements but the mind not connecting correctly with the body parts required to complete the actions. He had no other floating problems--he remained even in the water and could swim quite gracefully at that one level (the "level" being abt 3x his height)--at rest he looked quite normal as well and would sink to the same bottom he was unable to swim to! He just couldn't willingly move himself all the way to the top or bottom. He would sometimes spasm his top fins, shake his head, or crazily dart around after getting a single piece of food and at other times seemingly for no reason. I found peeling a chunk of cucumber, dicing it, then mashing it with a fork and tossing it in worked best for him. The pieces filled the water so much he had to get some without being able to actually aim to get it. They all go crazy for cucumber so this was ok with his tank mates too! However, he was loosing weight before our eyes! It became clear his brain was involved because over some time, he became slow to sense food even when the other fish had already reacted. It was both heartbreaking and heart warming to see another kio named Flipper, try to boost Blue up to the food on the surface and rest by his side. Blue eventually learned to pull stuff off the filter inlet and eat it...lucky for him the filter inlet happened to be at the level he was able to swim at. This action also suggested to us that the mouth injury probably wasn't his primary problem. He very definitely wanted to eat--he just couldn't coordinate the actions required to eat at the surface or bottom. A couple weeks of this caused us to get past this being due to his mouth injury and we revisited why he was behaving as he did when he originally was injured and why he would flip his head around, spasm his top fins, or dart around the tank at random times since then. Perhaps he was doing it before the day he was injured and we didn't notice? The micro-slow downward progression caused a friend to think--parasites or worms! We had this Koi for at least eight months, however, he was not purchased where the others had come from. My friend said that could be enough time for a tape worm or other worm or parasite to grow to a point of being problematic and assured me that API General Cure would be safe for Blue and his mates. I did some research and quickly thought this could be one of those worms that get into their heads. We thought his fate might be sealed but ordered the API General Cure. Luckily for us this koi and the others were in an indoor wintering tank and not out in a big pond--so, we dosed the entire tank. We had to buy more than one box because one box does 100 gallons one time. (be sure to follow box instructions and remove carbon from filters before using this product) Two rounds need to be done. We gave the first dose to the entire tank and its occupants and the very next day (24 hours later) Blue was going to the top and successfully aiming and grasping food for himself! He was even able to grab pellets being tossed about by the wavemaker! Show off! He's not eating like his old self yet, but he's getting a lot more than he's been getting. He's lost quite a bit of weight in two weeks. It's very obvious when he's next to koi that were of his same size before all this happened. I suggest that if you have a fish that is showing a very micro-slow progression to the negative, that you consider that it could be parasites or worms. We will be giving them the second dose tomorrow. His improvement in 24 hours of time is remarkable! I can't thank my friend and API enough for saving our Blue! Hope this review helps someone else in return! ... show more

  • Good Stuff
Item Package Quantity: 1
I always keep some of this in the fish med cabinet and use whenever I need it. I use it as precautionary whenever I get a new fish, just in case. Can't go wrong with API products.
