Microbe-Lift Broad Spectrum Disease Treatment 16 oz (MPN BSDT16)
Microbe-Lift BSDT is a treatment for various fish diseases, including Ichthyophithirius (Ich), Chilodonella, Costia, Oodinium, Trichodina, and fungal infections. It contains Malachite Green and Formalin and is considered the #1 treatment when the specific cause of the disease is unknown. It can be used in water temperatures as low as 50°F, allowing for treatment in early Spring and late Fall. The combination of Malachite Green and Formalin is more effective and less toxic than when used individually. Microbe-Lift BSDT is formulated with malachite green chloride, which is less toxic than the more commonly used oxalate salt. It is important not to use this treatment in combination with other medications.
To use Microbe-Lift BSDT, the recommended dosage is 3.5 oz. per 1,000 gallons of water for any pond size. Prior to the initial use and each of the three applications, a 20% water change should be made. A nearly total water change of over 90% will greatly improve effectiveness. Carbon filtration must be removed and UV lights turned off during treatment, though the bio-filter does not need to be bypassed. The treatment should be applied once a day for three consecutive days, and no water change is necessary after the third treatment. After completing the treatment, it is recommended to use Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun and Parazoryne for ten days to expel any remaining parasites, bacteria, fungi, etc., and promote healing. It is important to note that this product cannot be shipped when temperatures are below freezing.
