BATH: As a bath treatment use IntestiPro® for protozoan-caused intestinal issues. Remove any carbon or other removal media from system. Use one capful (~10g) per 20 gallons (76L) of water every three (3) days to produce a concentration of ~5 mg/L of Metronidazole and ~2.5 mg/L of Praziquantel. For optimum results, a minimum 30% water change (using CLORAM-X®, ULTIMATE® or RO) must be made prior to the first and each retreatment, until mortalities cease, or improvement noted. Treatments should be uninterrupted and could require up to 10 in total. If no improvement is noted within six (6) days, discontinue treatment and consider other options. ORAL: For systemic (internal) infections, IntestiPro® can be mixed with fish food. Check out our article on how to make medicated feed. When used as directed, will not harm biological filtration.
