Mardel Maracide Freshwater Medication

Maracide is effective against ick, trichodina, chilodinella and related parasites when used as directed. Includes Biospheres spot-on technology so it is automatically attracted to the fish. We make use of a revolutionary technology that delivers the treatment directly to the fish. Multi-layered microspheres attach to the fish and break down one layer at a time releasing the treatment in a controlled regulated manner. A filming agent, Chitosan, which has a molecular structure similar to the natural mucous coat of a fish, seals the treatment in contact with the tissue surface.During treatment U.V. sterilization should be discontinued. There is no need to disconnect wet/dry or diatomaceous filters during treatment. Maracide may cause an adverse reaction with some sensitive invertebrates. Invertebrates without an exoskeleton such as jellyfish, anemones etc. should be removed before treatment. Maracide should not be used in conjunction with any other parasitic treatments.Because of the unique action of the microspheres contained in Biospheres products, care should be used when combining Maracide with medications from other sources. Maracide is safe to use with plants. Care should be taken when treating scaleless fish due to the sensitivity of these fish.For use in freshwater only.Package includes comprehensive Fish Disease Guide, a complete guide for treatment of bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases of fish in freshwater and saltwater aquariums.
