Description
Suitable for coldwater & tropical aquariums. Treatment for bacterial, fungal, and some external protozoan parasitic infections of fish, fry, and eggs.
When to Use:
- When fish, fry, or eggs show signs of fungal infections such as fluffy cotton wool-like growths. If fish have grey, velvety film over their body or have excess mucus. If fish have red open wounds, ulcers, missing scales, rotting fins, or eroded mouth tissue.
- Methylene Blue can be used to treat bacterial, fungal, and some external protozoan parasitic infections. It is safe for use with eggs and fry. It is best used in a quarantine aquarium or treatment bath but can be added to the aquarium water, when transporting fish, or applied directly to wounds.
