Waterlife medications

If you have been in Aquaria long enough, you are bound to encounter some infections that would kill off your fish, Ick/Ich or whitespot are the most common. More so for goldfish, koi, clown loach. While most people will recommend salt treatment and raising temperature. I will ask you to use Protozin. I been through so many medications and nothing come close. Used the salt method before and it works but so much stress on the fish. salt does not evaporate in water and a overdose will strss them. The fish will form a smelly slime coat to protect themselves.

So lets talk about my recent Ick attack, couple of kois started scratching 3 weeks ago and getting more intense as the days go by. One fine evening, after turning on the overhead lights, i saw hundreds of small white spot on the orange orgon (single colour Koi). 3 others have the same problem too. After strong recommendations from a fellow hobbyist, Protozin is the only choice he said and now i believe him. 2nd day into treatment, there is no more visible white spot on the Koi. the treatment last 4 days but that is just to make sure any free swimming parasites are dead.

I use the 500ml professional grade protozin which is for bigger tanks and ponds. $45 a bottle. everyone should have one bottle for standby at home.
