    • Natural solution for fish fungus
Size: 16-Ounce
API Pimafix works great for treating fungal infections in freshwater or saltwater fish. The liquid formula is easy to use and doesn’t cloud the water. The scent is a bit strong at first but fades quickly. Best of all, it’s made with natural extracts, perfect for those who want to avoid harsh chemicals. Follow the manufacturer’s directions to avoid overdosing and keep your fish healthy. ... show more

    • Good when combined with melafix
Size: 16-Ounce
Combined with nelafox this does wonders for hospital tanks and sick fish. Doesn't effect plants and you still need to do a partial change of water after a week. Good quality medicine

    • For Certain Things This Is A Great First Defense (IN DEPTH REVIEW)
Size: 16-Ounce
(WARNING- This is an in depth review of this aquarium product. This review is to help those seriously interested in purchase make an informed buying decision. For a brief summary, see section marked THE BOTTOM LINE) ------------------- I have been keeping fish for quite a few years now. I have a variety of tanks and fish. When it comes to a first defense, I want something natural and that is not going to strip my tank filters of beneficial bacteria. Let's see how Pimafix measures up. WHAT IS PIMAFIX LIKE? Pimafix is a natural extract of a plant in the myrtle family also known as West Indian Bay tree. It is a weak extract which helps nudge the water into a more healthy environment for the fish in certain instances. This comes in a bottle with a measuring cap on top. You use 5ml for every 10 gallons of water, and use daily for seven days, followed by at least 25% water change. The smell is a bit herby and the appearance is clear. WHAT DOES THIS TREAT? This is used primarily for fungal conditions such as fungus growths, mouth and body fungus, and even reddening of the fins and body- but not the kind that is sores- that is better addressed by APIs other product called Melafix which is derived from tea tree. HOW DOES THIS PERFORM? This performs well when used for cottony looking fungal growth. I had a fish with a small patch of cottony growth on a top fin. After a week of use of Pimafix, the growth has gone down by half and none of the other fish have shown signs of it. DOES THIS AFFECT THE FILTER? This does not throw off the biological filter of the tank if used as recommended with water changes every 5 to 7 days. ANY UNUSUAL THINGS? This does create a tremendous foam in a tank so don't panic if that happens to you. It is normal and will go away eventually. SENSITIVITIES I HIGHLY recommend that when you start using Pimafix that you use a smaller dose at first to test for any fish sensitivities. I have used this in all of my freshwater tanks, usually with no problem, including snails and shrimp. HOWEVER, I have had occasional fish which have personal allergic reactions or difficulties with Pimafix or Melafix. It is important that you either remove the sick fish into a hospital tank that you can isolate treatment and observation or at least start with smaller doses to test and see if any fish are allergic. THE BOTTOM LINE For fungal conditions, if you use Pimafix as a first defense, it will help reduce and often reverse cottony looking fungal conditions and general body or fin reddening. For more serious conditions, something a bit more intense might be required. MY RATING I really love Pimafix. It works well if you catch things early in your tanks, and often can go hand in hand with Melafix, depending on your fish. ... show more

Three stars because the bottles didn't have a thermos-sealed cap. This suggests the medicine may have been bottled in a basement, not a factory, and is not of the expected quality. Be careful when ordering!
