Description
Seachem KanaPlex 5g
Overview:
Seachem KanaPlex 5g is a blended kanamycin based medication that safely and effectively treats several fungal, and bacterial fish diseases (dropsy, popeye, fin/tail rot, septicemia). Also, it is absorbed by the fish. Therefore it is useful in treating internal infections in those situations where food is refused. It does not adversely affect the filter bed. Also, it is easily removed with carbon. You can dose it in a medicated food mix. Excellent for treating bacterial infections in tanks that contain invertebrates. For use in freshwater or marine aquaria.
Indications:
KanaPlex is appropriate for treating a variety of fungal, and bacterial fish diseases. Below are some of the more common diseases treatable with Seachem KanaPlex. Be aware that many diseases and infections share similar physical and behavioural symptoms, e.g. clamped fins, lesions, loss of appetite.
- Popeye
- Cloudy Eye
- Fin Rot
- Hemorrhagic Septicemia
- Dropsy
- Mouth Rot
Bacterial infection
Basically, eyes protrude or appear to be “popping out” of the head. As popeye is caused by a buildup of fluid behind the eye. Often seen in conjunction with Dropsy.
Suggested Treatment Period:
1 week
Directions:
Dosing in Water
Remove all invertebrates. Since these are extremely sensitive to medication. Also turn off UV filters, ozone filters, and remove chemical filtration like Seachem MatrixCarbon and Seachem Purigen. With this in mind using 1 measure (included) per every 20 litres. Remember to repeat this dose every 48 hours to a maximum of 3 doses. In any case of severe infection, it is possible to carry out two rounds of treatment back-to-back. However, only if fish show no signs of stress at the end of the first round.
Dosing in Food
Feed the medicated food mix (recipe below) daily until the infection clears or up to 1 week.
In order to enhance palatability use with GarlicGuard or Entic.
After Treating:
Seachem KanaPlex can easily be removed after the treatment period. Such as using activated filter carbon like Seachem MatrixCarbon. Moreover, it does not linger in the substrate or filter media of the tank.
