Fritz | Maracyn
Maracyn® is a powerful antibiotic for ornamental fish, designed to combat gram-positive bacteria causing diseases like body fungus, gill disease, popeye, mouth fungus, open lesions, hemorrhagic septicemia, and slime disease. Symptoms of bacterial infections include clamped fins, swollen eyes, rapid breathing, and change in swimming behavior. If you suspect a bacterial infection, it is important to seek help from a veterinarian or fish expert and start treatment right away. The active ingredient in Maracyn® is Erythromycin.
