Fish Disease Remedies
Fishes as well as other animals are subject to a wide spectrum of diseases. Fishes are affected by water temperature, pH, osmotic pressures, dissolved gases, elements, etc. These factors also determine whether or not a disease agent can or will cause disease in a fish. Ich (ichthyophthiriasis) is one of the most prevalent diseases of fish. It is caused by a microscopic protozoan that causes white spots in the skin and gills of the fish. Alteration of the protective skin of the fish by ich allows opportunistic bacteria or fungi for invasion and the fish can die from secondary causes. The best control of ich is prevention. New plants and fish can introduce unsuspected ich. An excellent preventative measure is to treat your pond for Ich BEFORE adding fish or plants.
If you have concern, do not hesitate to call us. If possible, review the fish disease chapters in Tricker’s Book "1101 Water Gardening Questions and Answers" to become more familiar with fish diseases.
And, as an excellent measure, use Supra Ultra Clear routinely maintain a slime coat on the fish. Read below the added features of using this product. YOUR FISH deserve the BEST!
