Fish Flakes: Antibiotic
Those of you ordering from Canada should know that Canadian Customs has blocked shipments containing these products. Ordering it is at your risk.
Antibiotic I: Designed to primarily stop infections from gram-negative bacteria. We use our Freshwater Fish Flake Food for the base formula on this flake. It has added garlic. Feed this medicated fish food exclusively for 10 days.
Active ingredient: Kana mycin Sulfate. Now contains beta-glucan. It is water-soluble, so the Proper Feeding of Medi-cated Fish Food is a must-read. We recommend feeding our Prevent & Recover Fish Flake for 1 week after the medicated feeding is discontinued. For ornamental fish use only.
Antibiotic II: To complement our other antibiotic flake, this one attacks gram-positive bacteria. Since your nitrifying bacteria are also gram-positive, using medicated fish flake food is by far the best way to combat this type of bacteria. Feed this fish food exclusively for 10 days.
Active ingredient: Oxy tetracycline Hydro chloride. Also containing beta glucan for immune boosting. This is water-soluble, so the Proper Feeding of Medicated Fish Food is a must (See Article section of Tabs). We recommend feeding our Prevent & Recover Flake for 1 week after the medicated feeding is discontinued. For ornamental fish use only.
Packed in a Black Foil zip-lock bag, which will keep your food fresher for a longer time.

I noticed a minimal amount of fin rot all fish were eating well. Aquarium was well planted rater than treating with medication added to water decided to order medicated food. Fish accepted food and started the recommended 10 day instruction. Today is the last day of treatment amazed at results all fin rot has improved and all fish are more active and seem much healthier. Looking forward to starting prevent and recover course on Tuesday. My suggestion if you notice a problem and fish are eating medicated food is the way to go. Thanks
After reading about them online being successfully used on poultry I decided to try these medicated flakes for my jumbo Pekin! He has an awful
Time with chronic bumblefoot. These flakes have been a game changer! Rather than having to give him an injection, I can give him these as a treat! And they have worked for him! I’m so thankful!

Don't be fooled into thinking a fish food is good just because fish readily eat it. Children prefer candy over broccoli, but it doesn't mean that candy is better for them. A taste preference can easily be acquired through hunger. Getting them to prefer foods that are also very good for them, is the trick. Even though it's not always needed, our way of getting them to develop a taste for a new food, works. It is described below.
Fish won't eat their new food? When switching to a new fish food, we highly recommend getting the fish very hungry. Often times, fish become accustomed to a particular fish food and will not eat another, no matter how good it is for them. When introducing a new food, we usually don't feed the fish for 24-48 hours, depending on the size of the fish, and then offer only one bite per fish (key to success). Remove food after 1 minute if uneaten. Do this every few hours. It may take several days, especially for larger fish that have become accustomed to other fish foods. Don't worry, fish can easily and safely go much longer than this without food. Allowing the food to sit uneaten in the tank for even a couple hours can turn them off to the food permanently. If you don't give in, this method works every time.
Using this technique, you can quickly get most fish to eat a new food like ravenous piranha without much effort. In fact, we have to be careful feeding, because they often jump out of the tank in their feeding frenzy. Watch some of our fish feeding in the below video. Keep in mind, they were first introduced to these fish foods using this technique.
