When used in a medicated food mix, it is excellent for treating bacterial infections in tanks that contain invertebrates. For use in freshwater or marine aquaria.

Repeat this dose every 48 hours to a maximum of 3 doses. In cases of severe infections, it is possible to carry out two rounds of treatment back-to-back. However, this should only be done if fish show no signs of stress at the end of the first round.To enhance palatability use with GarlicGuard™ or Entice™.After Treating: When the treatment period is over, KanaPlex™ can easily be removed using activated filter carbon like MatrixCarbon™.
