ParaGuard
Eradicates ectoparasites and fungal, bacterial, and viral lesions
Safer to dose than formaldehyde, formalin, and methanol
Will not adversely effect bio-filter
Description
ParaGuard is the only fish and filter safe aldehyde based (10% by weight) parasite control product available (for parasites on fish)
Unlike highly toxic and difficult to use formalin based medications, ParaGuard contains no formaldehyde or methanol and will not alter pH
ParaGuard employs a proprietary, synergistic blend of aldehydes, malachite green, and fish protective polymers that effectively and efficiently eradicates many ectoparasites (e
g
ich, etc
) and external fungal/bacterial/viral lesions (e
g
, fin rot)
It is particularly useful in hospital and receiving tanks for new fish and whenever new fish are introduced to a community tank
Directions
Dosing Remove all invertebrates from the tank as well as any chemical filtration
Use 5 mL (1 capful) of ParaGuard for every 40 L (10 US gallons)
Repeat this dose daily as required as long as fish show no stress
ParaGuard can also be used as a medicated dip
For 1 hour dips, use 3 mL per 4 L (1 US gallon) in a container separate from your main tank
Dips may be extended if the fish show no evidence of stress
Keep in mind that many diseases linger in the water as well as on the fish
Giving a fish a dip treatment does no good if they go right back into infected water
Quarantine This is a tank set up in order monitor and medicate new fish before they go into the main tank
ParaGuard is gentle enough to use prophylactically (without visible symptoms) if needed
Quarantine times vary, but we generally recommend 2 weeks of treatment with ParaGuard to clear out any possible external infections
Sensitive Fish Some fish are more sensitive to medications than others
Eels, loaches, rays, sharks, and many others are well known for their sensitivity to all kinds of medications
If you suspect that your fish may be sensitive to medications, it is just fine to start with a partial dose and build up to the full dose over several days
Not recommended for reef aquaria
As an alternative, use Seachem

This is a good medicine. Takes time to work, 1 week or so. My goldfish had infection in fins, cleared it all up! Must have product, better to buy and keep than order it when you need it. The product has long shelf life since no expiry mentioned by seachem.
