Description
Anti-Parasite Treatment for Koi
Treats: White Spot, Trichodina, Costia, Chilodonella.
When to use:
When fish show symptoms of a parasitic infection, including white spots along the fins and body, flicking and rubbing, gasping at the surface, or an opaque film over the body.
Formaldehyde is highly effective at treating parasites due to its ability to penetrate through the mucus layer, reaching those parasites which would otherwise be protected from alternative bath treatments.
Formaldehyde can be used in conjunction with Koi Care Malachite to treat protozoan parasites more effectively.
Suitable for koi only.
Do:
Test your water quality using Pondlab Test Kits.
Mix the appropriate dosage in a clean bucket of pond water, pour evenly over the surface of the pond and leave for 7 days. Switch off UV filtration for 5 days. Aerate the pond well during treatment.
If you feel a repeat dose is necessary, check your diagnosis carefully using the Diagnosis Tool on our website; a different medication may be more suitable. Allow 7 days and perform a partial water change before re- treating or treating with a different medication.
Always treat when you have time to observe fish and take appropriate action in the unlikely event of a bad reaction.
If required, mix with Malachite prior to adding to the pond, following the instructions above.
Warning:
Do not use with orfe, rudd, tench or sturgeon/sterlet.
Do not use if the water temperature is above 30°C.
Do not use in hot, humid, thundery conditions.
Do not mix medications, other than combining with Koi Care Malachite.
Q: How do I mix Formaldehyde & Malachite Green? A: If you are going to use these 2 products together then simply follow the instructions for each individual product, there is no need to adjust the dosage or to pre-mix the 2 treatments, you can simply apply one product followed by the other at the dosage on the instructions. Alternativley, for ease of use we would reccomend using our pre-mixed F-M-G product.
