Description
MelaFix is API's all natural antibacterial remedy for aquarium fish showing the signs of a bacterial infection. It is made for both freshwater and saltwater tanks, so it suits a tropical community aquarium, a goldfish tank or a marine setup equally. Reach for it when a fish develops open wounds, tail rot, eye cloud or mouth fungus.
Bacterial problems announce themselves visually. Fins look ragged at the edges, a graze from a decoration stops healing and turns cloudy, or a film appears around the eyes or mouth. Most outbreaks trace back to stressed fish in unstable water, so a treatment works best alongside good husbandry rather than instead of it. MelaFix targets the infection while stimulating regrowth of damaged fins and tissue, and it leaves the aquarium itself alone: no stripped biological filter, no pH shift, no cloudy water.
Many keepers also use it as cover when introducing new stock, since bagging and moving fish is stressful and stress is what lets opportunistic bacteria in. Test your water at the same time, because an ammonia or nitrite reading is often the real cause behind repeat infections.
