Medication options/alternatives?

[Lara]

Hi lovelies,

I'm trying to figure out some more global alternatives to a medication that I use but not many outside Australia seem to be able to access.

It is Wardley promethyasul and it contains: mafenide hydrochloride 24.2mg/mL, aminacrine hydrochloride 3.3mg/mL & malachite green 0.4mg/mL, I've found it to be highly effective and it doesn't seem to stress the fish at all during treatment.

It is also a broad spectrum treatment for bacterial, fungal and parasitic diseases, so it's good if you don't know what is wrong with your fish or as a preventative treatment when adding new fish if you don't have a quarantine tank.

I'm looking for similar alternatives, not melafix and primafix which I have used and don't like at all. Any advise please?

Thanks,
Lara

Malachite green by Kordon is good for parasites

Kordon has many effective treatments. Just be cautious though malachite and methylene can stain your seals on the tank. Although I have never had problems with it.
