- Treats bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases.
- Very broad spectrum freshwater medication.
- Good choice when unsure of the disease.
Overview:PolyGuard
is the single most effective medication to keep freshwater fish free of
disease! It is an effective treatment and safeguard against all
prevalent bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases of exotic fish. For
use in freshwater or marine aquaria.
When our pets are sick, we
immediately want to reach for the most powerful medication on the shelf.
However, sometimes the right choice to prevent stress is to opt for a
gentler medication at first, especially with less severe infections.
PolyGuard is among Seachem’s strongest medications, and is best used
when you are unsure what disease you are treating or when the fish is
suffering from multiple infections.
Indications:PolyGuard
is appropriate for treating a variety of bacterial, fungal, and
parasitic diseases of exotic fish including; Fin Rot, Hemorrhagic
Septicemia, Ich, White Spot, Mouth Rot and Fungus. Be aware that many
diseases and infections share similar physical and behavioral symptoms,
e.g. clamped fins, lesions, loss of appetite.
Directions:Before Treating:Remove
all invertebrates - these are extremely sensitive to medication. Turn
off UV filters, ozone filters, and remove chemical filtration like
MatrixCarbon and Purigen. Ensure that your tank is fully cycled and
stable; poor water quality is the root cause of most fish diseases, and
adding medication will do no good if the water chemistry is still bad.
Dosing:Use
1 measure (included) per every 40 L (10 US gallons) of water. Repeat
this dose every 72 hours for a maximum of 2 weeks. Repeat every 3 days
for up to 2 weeks or until symptoms disappear. Use whenever introducing
new fish.
After Treating:When the treatment
period is over, PolyGuard can easily be removed using activated filter
carbon like MatrixCarbon. It does not linger in the substrate or filter
media of the tank.
