NT Labs Aquarium - Anti White Spot and Fungus
White spot is a protozoan parasite; the adults live on the fish and appear as tiny white spots. The adult has a complex life cycle which results in hundreds of free-swimming juveniles looking for a host fish to infest.
Use when small white spots, like grains of salt, can be seen scattered on the body of the fish, if the fish are showing signs of irritation and rubbing on objects in the aquarium, fish have a grey, velvety film all over the body, or fish have white cotton wool-like growths on their body/mouth/ fins.
This medication should be used very carefully if there are loaches and other scaleless fish in the aquarium. Formaldehyde works by removing the mucus layer from fish, effectively penetrating it to kill the parasite. The malachite green then protects the fish. However, scaleless fish don't have anything to protect their delicate skin if the mucus is removed. Monitor during and after treatment and use aloe vera based tonics like stress coat to help your fish regenerate their mucus layer after treatment.
Anti-White Spot & Fungus is a 7 day course of treatment which will eradicate White-Spot, parasites & fungal growths.
Remember to remove carbon from filtration during treatment and if skimmers are used, they will need to be turned off.
