What it Treats:

Fish Sulfa Forte is effective against a variety of bacterial infections, including:

• External Infections: Fin rot, tail rot, mouth rot, open sores, and ulcers. These external manifestations of bacterial infections can be unsightly and harmful to fish. Consider Fish Flex for external bacterial infections.
• Internal Infections: Bacterial hemorrhagic septicemia (blood poisoning), dropsy (often caused by bacterial infection), and some forms of swim bladder disease (when bacterial in origin). Internal bacterial infections can be difficult to diagnose without veterinary assistance. You can find more information about dropsy and other fish diseases on our website.

How to Use:

(Important Disclaimer: Always consult a qualified aquatic veterinarian for proper diagnosis, dosage, and treatment duration based on your specific fish species, size, and the severity of the infection. The following information is for general guidance only and should not replace veterinary advice.)

• Dosage: The typical starting dose is one tablet per 10 gallons of aquarium water. Subsequent doses are usually half the initial dose, administered every 12 hours. The number of tablets needed will depend on your tank size.
• Treatment Duration: A typical treatment course lasts 5-7 days, but this can vary depending on the specific infection and your veterinarian’s recommendations. It is crucial to complete the entire treatment course to prevent the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
• Administration: Dissolve the required number of tablets in a small container of aquarium water before adding it to the main tank or quarantine tank.
• Water Changes: Perform a 25% water change before each subsequent dose. Regular water changes are essential for maintaining good water quality during treatment.
• Quarantine Tank: It is highly recommended to treat infected fish in a separate quarantine tank to avoid disrupting the biological filter in your main aquarium.
