When to use:
A five-day course of treatment for when fish show symptoms of parasite infection, such as irritation, flicking, gasping at surface, covered in thick opaque mucus or visible white sports on the body. Use if fish show signs of a fungal infection which can appear as cotton wool-like growths on the body. Use as a preventative in early spring or when introducing new fish. Eradick can be applied directly to leeches and lice, and is safe to use if pond salt plus is present in the water at General Tonic level.
Do:
Shake bottle well.
Mix the correct dose in a clean bucket of pond water, then pour evenly around the pond. Switch off UV for 10 days from first dose. Wait 10 days after final dose before repeating treatment or applying anther treatment. Allow plenty of time to observe the fish and take action in the unlikely event of a reaction.
Caution:
Do not use when the water temperature is above 30’C.
Do not use in hot, humid, thundery weather.
Do not mix medications.
