API Melafix

API Melafix is a freshwater fish remedy labelled for selected bacterial infections and damaged fins or tissue. This listing is the 16 oz bottle of the freshwater product; API offers a separate Marine Melafix formulation for saltwater use.

Visible sores, fin damage, or cloudy eyes need investigation because similar signs can have different causes. Check ammonia, nitrite, temperature, and recent injuries or aggression alongside the fish's symptoms. A remedy cannot correct an unsuitable environment or stop another fish from repeatedly causing wounds.

Use the bottle's current instructions for the measured treatment volume, including shaking the product, managing activated carbon, completing the treatment course, and performing the specified water change. Keep the aquarium well aerated and monitor the fish closely. Worsening symptoms warrant a reassessment of the cause and appropriate aquatic-health advice rather than unplanned increases in dose.
