Key Features

• Active Ingredient: Metronidazole
• Target Diseases: Treats infections like hole-in-the-head disease, gill disease, and other systemic bacterial infections.
• Formulation: Fine powder that easily dissolves in water, making it suitable for both food and direct application.

Ideal Use Case

MetroPlex is ideal for aquarists who suspect their fish are suffering from internal parasites or bacterial infections. It should be used in a quarantine tank or a main display tank, but be mindful of sensitive species when applying. It is effective in both freshwater and marine aquariums.

Setup Tips

Before using MetroPlex, it is advisable to isolate affected fish to prevent the spread of disease. To administer MetroPlex, dissolve the recommended dosage in water or mix it with food to ensure thorough consumption. Regular monitoring of water quality is essential during treatment.

Maintenance

After treatment with MetroPlex, perform a water change to help improve the overall health of the aquarium. This helps to remove any residual medication and restores the biological balance in the tank. Additionally, consider observing fish for a few days to ensure recovery.
