Description
When to use?
White, sugar grain-sized spots covering the body indicate marine white spot (
Cryptocaryon), while finer white spots are symptoms of marine velvet (
Oodinium). Both are protozoan parasite diseases and may cause the fish to rub themselves against rocks or other aquarium décor.
Anti-Parasite uses the tried-and-tested method of chelated copper therapy, boosted by the power of formalin to rapidly control these dangerous parasites. Anti-Parasite is a great choice for fish-only systems or hospital aquariums.
