Pond Care: Algae Destroyer 16 oz

Dimilin controls the anchor worm parasite (Lernaea) in water gardens, koi ponds and display tanks containing fish, including goldfish, koi and ornamental tropical fish. Anchor worms are external copepod parasites that infest koi, goldfish and tropical fish. They are not true worms and are classified as crustaceans because their outer body is made of chitin, the same material found in crab shells. The female anchor worm has a long body up to 25 mm long (1 inch) with anchor-like appendages at the head. The female attaches to the fish by burrowing through the skin (males die after mating). The anchor becomes firmly embedded into the skin, muscle and organs of the fish. The adult female looks worm-like with two sacs (egg cases) that form an upside down "Y" hanging from the fish. A single female can produce hundreds of eggs and the eggs hatch in about 3 to 5 days depending on water temperature. The free-swimming parasites then molt several times before reproducing. This easy-to-use liquid interrupts the parasite's life cycle and reproductive process, effectively controlling the spread of anchor worms.

Directions For Use: Add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) for every 60 gallons (227 L) / ¼ cup (60 ml) for every 240 gallons (908 L) / ½ cup (120 ml) for every 480 gallons (1816 L) of water. Wait 14 days then repeat treatment to ensure control of the parasites. Do not change the water between treatments. After the second treatment is complete, wait another 14 days before discharging or disposing of treated water.

Pond Care Pimafix is an all-natural medication derived from the leaves of Pimenta racemosa, the scientific name for the West Indian Bay Tree. Pimafix has powerful antifungal and antibacterial properties due to the multiple natural active compounds in Pimafix.

Disease-causing organisms are present in all ponds. Any time a physical abrasion damages fish tissue, fungal and bacterial pathogens seize the opportunity to infect the fish. Shipping, netting, and poor water quality also weaken the fish’s immune system, permitting disease problems to occur. Skin and fin abrasions are an unavoidable part of fish keeping. Therefore the potential for disease problems occur with every new fish arrival, whether it is at the hatchery, fish wholesaler, pond shop, or in the pond.

Fungal infections can be seen as white fuzzy growth on the mouth, skin, and fins. Pimafix will stop the fungus and promote healing of damaged tissue. Bacterial infections appear as ulcers, ragged fins, and bloating. Pimafix treats internal and external bacterial infections in goldfish and koi.

Directions For Use: Add two teaspoonfuls (10 ml) of Pimafix for every 50 U.S. gallons (190 L) or 2 cupfuls (120 ml) for every 600 U.S. gallons (2,280 L) of pond water. Repeat dose daily for seven days. Treatment may be continued if necessary.
