INDICATIONS & USAGE

WHY USE MELAFIX?

Quickly heals bacterial infections on Koi and goldfish

Promotes re-growth of damaged fins and tissue

Reduces risk of disease spread when introducing new fish

Made from a botanical extract

MELAFIX uses the antibacterial properties of Tea Tree (Melaleuca) to treat bacterial infections in pond fish, including ulcers, open wounds, and fin and tail rot. Healing and tissue re-growth can often be seen within 4 days of treatment. Will not harm the biological filter. Safe for snails, aquatic plants and other wildlife. MELAFIX is also recommended when adding new fish to a pond to reduce the risk of disease outbreak.
