NTLABS Aquarium – Anti-Ulcer & Finrot

When to use?
Certain species of bacteria such as Aeromonas and Pseudomonas cause fin, mouth and body tissue to be eaten away. Early diagnosis is essential to prevent the infection becoming fatal.
Use when fish have red wounds, ulcers, missing scales, red blotches, rotting fins or eroded mouth tissue.
How to use?

NT Labs Anti-Ulcer and Finrot for bacterial wounds and fin damage

Anti-Ulcer and Finrot treats the bacterial infections, typically Aeromonas and Pseudomonas, that eat away at fins, mouths and body tissue. Use it when you spot red wounds, ulcers, missing scales, red blotches, rotting fins or eroded mouth tissue. As NT Labs note, early diagnosis is essential, since these infections can become fatal if left to spread, so don’t wait to act once symptoms appear.

To dose, work out your tank volume in litres (length x width x depth in cm divided by 1000) or use our dosage calculator, then shake the bottle thoroughly and add the measured dose. In our warm local tanks, fin rot often takes hold after a temperature swing or a lapse in water quality, so we always recommend a water change and a review of filtration alongside the treatment course.
