Description

API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy soothes the transition from store to home by reducing the risk of your fish developing a disease. The fish you bought may already carry a disease. Disease is often difficult to detect, particularly in its early stages. Treat bacterial infections in your fish and reduce the risk of spreading illness to other fish with API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy. Bacterial diseases are caused mostly by dirty aquarium conditions and the addition of infected fish. Fish that are injured and have open wounds are especially susceptible, even in seemingly clean tanks. Bacterial infections, like fin and tail rot, eye cloud, pop eye, body slime and mouth fungus destroy tissue and other organs, and if left untreated, can cause death. API MELAFIX Freshwater Fish Bacterial Infection Remedy is an all-natural antibacterial treatment that heals open wounds, treats bacterial infections and promotes re-growth of damaged fins and tissue, usually within a week. Just add 5 ml per 10 gallons of aquarium water. It will not adversely affect the biological filter, alter the pH or discolor the water. For effective treatment, dose infected fish daily for 7 days, and continue afterward if necessary. Dose new fish daily for 3 days. Remove activated carbon from filter before use, if possible. With API Aquarium products, it’s easy to keep a beautiful saltwater, freshwater or reef aquarium. For over 50 years, API has been creating innovative, research-driven solutions that make it easier to care for your fish and aquarium. API Aquarium Treatment Supplies are designed to work in conjunction with each other to provide best results to control algae, promote healthy bacterial growth and help control and cure fish diseases and conditions such as ich and fin rot. They work to provide a safe, hospitable environment for fish such as tropical community fish, cichlids, goldfish and more. With API, you can spend more time admiring your fish, and less time scrubbing your tank. Make sure to use all products as directed in order to ensure the best results.

  • Miracle product!
Size: 16-Ounce Style: Freshwater
So my beta fish was pretty much near death because I am a crappy owner who didn’t change his filter soon enough. He was floating on his side barely breathing and I thought for sure, this is it. As a last ditch effort to save my $2.99 little fish buddy, I ordered this stuff and got it the next day. Oh my goodness!! After only one dose he perked up and after a couple doses, he is completely fine! I thought for sure this little fish was a goner, but this stuff really, really worked. He had fin rot and his little fins were full of gunk and looking all frayed, but he looks like a brand new fish now only after a few days of using this product! I can’t recommend it enough, this stuff saved my little guy. ... show more

  • Helped my new betta
Size: 4-Ounce Style: Freshwater
I’m back to the fish tank world. I set up my tank days before got my bettas. I brought them home and one she wasn’t doing well. I got this last minute resort to save her and she’s swimming around now. I hope this helps cause I didn’t wanna lose her when I just got her. But she’s happier now and I can tell she’s not sitting in one spot miserable anymore ... show more

  • Works! BUT I got an air stone to be safe
Size: 8-Ounce Style: Freshwater
I'm watching a coworkers betta while they're out of the office for the summer and could tell he was showing the early stages of fin rot on his top fin. I am paranoid of him dying on my watch since he's not mine and also I've grown attached to him. I got this medication and was pleased it's natural/tea tree-based but I've read (and heard horror stories from friends) about even natural medication killing their fish - most medications have oils, making it hard to breathe for them and ultimately causing death. To be extra safe about him getting oxygen, I also bought & put in an air stone and made sure the bubble output was high -diffusing microbubbles, and adjusted the pump output to not be too strong in order to not overwhelm the fish since bettas don't like too much current/water disturbance. The medication is working, and he is also seems happier than ever with a lot more activity and is actually using his tank objects, unlike before! If you're worried about the medication/oils, make sure to get an air stone that doesn't have bubbles too large - the tinier the better for oxygen diffusion! ... show more
