thank you for this video! i’m dealing with epistylis in my tank right now and have been so confused on how to use kanaplex. i didn’t know it could be added straight into the water! thank you!
@@AGuppy just like any antibiotic that is wide spectrum make sure you use all of it and do not cut corners as it will come back in your tank. Good luck glad to have helped.
Make sure you use Seachem Focus to mix with Kanaplex or Metroplex as it bonds the medication to the food. Otherwise as soon as you put in water it will dissolve in the water column.
Thank you. Yes I use one or the other for targeted treatments. As long as the fish are eating. If not you really have to treat a bare quarantine tank with something they will get from the water and reach the source of the problem, but you are right on my friend.
@@TCgirl I would try polyguard first. Try that two doses. Make sure you read the directions on the back. If that doesn’t work, try NeoPlex as instructed.
My female Betta tank has velvet. I bought a metroplex bundle with garlic guard and focus as well as something else. I really hope that this helps. I've already lost one Betta
I have fin rot on fresh water angel fish in my show tank what would u think I should dose the tank with my tanks is planted my quarantine is bare bottom but it’s still in cycle I also have a uv sterilizer on that tank
@@aquaticconceptsbringingwaterto what med should I use on my show tank with plants ? To kill anything in the tank or prevent others from getting it ? Not sure what med to use
i used ich-x and it did nothing for me except permanently coloring everything I had in my tank. Poly guard is what I'v been told and I have seen been used by stores

Always use the Quarantine tank first unless you have to medicate the full tank.

How do u use replashy on food to make it stick to meds mash the food like mash potatoes ?
The instructions on the bottle and follow closely!
I agreed 👍
API General Cure and API Erythromycin completely skipped over and those, with Ick-X are the only three (3) you need, period.
i used ich-x and it did nothing for me except permanently coloring everything I had in my tank. Poly guard is what I'v been told and I have seen been used by stores
Sorry that happened to you. I use it in $1,000 tanks and have had no staining.
i asked seachem they said dont mix medication with boil water which repashy required to make is that true ?
No never put the medication in the water. Make small jello-like squares and insert the medication there if you are treating something internal.
Great and super helpful!
Thank you!
