API FIN & BODY CURE Freshwater Fish Powder Medication 10-Count Box

Q: Does api fin and body cure & api melafix treat the same things since they are both anti-bacterial meds?

API Fin and Body Cure is an antibiotic where API Melafix is an antibacterial. They target different types of bacteria that cause the similar symptoms in fish.

Q: What would I do if I have a 3 gallon tank?

To dose a smaller volume aquarium with a medication packet, you would need to dissolve an entire packet of medication into 10ounces of dechlorinated water. You use however much medicated water in ounces to gallons you have. For example- Dose 1.5ounces for your 1.5 gallon aquarium. Or 4 ounces to 4 gallons etc. You must dispose and make up a new batch of medicated water each time you need to dose the aquarium.

Q: First 2 days my water was yellowish-brown, now its pink... is that normal???

Yes, this is normal. The final water exchange will reduce the color and adding the carbon back to the filter will reduce the color.

Reviews

G**L

Ok but...

used after seeing American YouTuber recommend but sadly I believe UK market version is very different to USA which is where it’s actually from. This is based off of results and packaging. I did see a slight improvement in my fish health but I do believe multiple boxes of these would be required to completely solve a mild fish aillment. so you are better off using other medicines. Does come conveniently packaged in sachets with clear instructions and doesn’t affect water quality or clarity. The sachets make it very easy to use but I have to say value for money and effectiveness is mediocre. Sad as I am a hugr fan of the API brand, but this is not the product for me.
