Pond Medic Acriflavine
Pond Medic Acriflavin is used to treat bacterial and fungal infections in fish. It can be effective against a range of common fish diseases, including fin rot, mouth rot, and external bacterial and fungal infections. Acriflavin works by interfering with the metabolism and growth of bacteria and fungi. It disrupts their cellular processes, inhibiting their ability to reproduce and causing their eventual death. The treatment involves adding the recommended dosage of the medication directly to the water in the pond or aquarium. While Acriflavin is generally considered safe for fish when used as directed, it is essential to follow the recommended dosage and treatment guidelines. Overdosing can be harmful to fish, particularly sensitive species. Additionally, Acriflavin may stain the water yellow, but this is temporary and will usually dissipate over time.
Dosage:
- 250 ml treats – 3,750 Gallons

- 1ltr Treats – 15,000 Gallons.
