|---|---|---|---|
Fungal Infection• Whitish cottony tufts or patches appear on the mouth, skin and fins of tropical fish, goldfish and koi. • We recommend API PIMAFIX. |
Fin And Tail Rot• Fins appear ragged and split. Disease can progress until fins and tail are completely eroded. • Secondary fungal infections commonly occur. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX or FIN & BODY CURE. |
Dropsy and Malawi Bloat• Fish develop a bloated appearance due to accumulation of fluid in the body cavity. • Scales may appear to stick out from the sides of fish. • In advanced cases, fish lose the ability to swim and may float upside down. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish) or PIMAFIX, or alternatively FIN & BODY CURE. |
Bacterial Hemorrhagic Septicemia• Fish show blood streaks in the fins and body. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX or FIN & BODY CURE. |

|---|---|---|---|
Eye Cloud, Body Slime• Eyes develop a whitish haze and/or protrude from the head. • Hazy or slimy patches appear on the bodies of fish. • If infested with parasites, fish may scratch on objects in the aquarium and exhibit rapid breathing. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX or FIN & BODY CURE. |
Open Red Sores• Fish exhibit open red sores on the body. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX, E.M ERYTHROMYCIN or FIN & BODY CURE. |
Mouth Fungus - Saddleback Disease• Raised, gray patches are observed on the fins and mouth areas of fish. • Live bearers, such as guppies and mollies, develop grayish patches on their backs, giving rise to the name “saddle back disease.” • Infected areas may develop into red ulcers and infect the gills, causing rapid loss of fish. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish) or PIMAFIX, or alternatively E.M ERYTHROMYCIN or FIN & BODY CURE. |
Bacterial Gill Disease• Fish will scratch against objects and appear listless. A grayish film may form on the body. • Rapid breathing in fish may be accompanied by gasping at the surface of the water, or the fish sitting on the bottom of the aquarium. • Gills undergo severe damage, leading to suffocation and death. • We recommend API MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish), or alternatively PIMAFIX, E.M ERYTHROMYCIN or FIN & BODY CURE. |

Flukes/Parasitic Worms• Most parasitic worms are not visible without the aid of a microscope. Fish will scratch against objects and appear listless. A grayish film may form one the body. • Rapid breathing in fish may be accompanied by gasping at the surface of the water, or the fish sitting on the bottom of the aquarium. • Gills undergo severe damage, leading to suffocation and death. • We recommend API GENERAL CURE. For secondary or fungal infection, use MELAFIX (or BETTAFIX if you have a betta fish) and PIMAFIX together. |
Hole-In-The-Head Disease (Hexamita)• The most obvious symptom is the pitting and erosion of skin and muscle tissue around the face of the fish. This erosion appears to be a symptom of the parasite's presence in the intestinal tract, not on the surface of the fish. • Many fish exhibit poor appetite, weight loss and nervousness; without proper treatment, death ultimately results. • We recommend API GENERAL CURE |
Ich (Ichthyophthirius)• Early symptoms of this infection in fish include darting in the aquarium and scratching against the gravel and ornaments. • Fish exhibit labored breathing and may remain at the water's surface, near filters and aeration devices. • White spots may or may not be visible on the fish. • We recommend API SUPER ICK CURE along with API AQUARIUM SALT |
Subclinical Parasitic Infestation• Fish may scratch on objects in the aquarium. • Slimy skin may develop on fish and fins may be clamped. • Labored breathing may be observed. • We recommend API SUPER ICK CURE along with API AQUARIUM SALT. |

Works well , definitely for adding new fish .
I unfortunately lost half my fish before it arrive but the other half survived. Now when I add new fish I add this for 3 days and no problems and they been living my endlers and new Corydoras.It works good for new fish and when your kinda at a lost of what's going on . It doesn't hurt to add . I did go a little light because my Corydoras act a bit odd when I add this stuff so be mindful at the recommend doses , I usually add a little less and at the last day the recommend dose.
