General Information

Acriflavine is efffective against external parasitic infections in freshwater and marine tropical ornamental fishes. As a fungicide, it is effective against Saproglenia ssp; as protozoacide, it is effective against Ambiphyra, Chilodonella, Cryptocaryon Irritans, Hexamita, Ichthyophthirius multifilis, Oodinium and Schyphidia species.

Directions for Use

Long Duration Bath (3 - 5 days) - One application of 200 milligrams of acriflavine per 10 gallons (5 ppm) of either aquarium water, static holding tank water, or shipping water. No water change is required. This will kill your plants and negatively impact your filtration system's beneficial nitrogen reducing bacteria.

Short Duration Bath (2 hours) - Using an independent, separate treatment container with appropriate aeration, prepare as 10 part per million (ppm) treatment bath. Note: 10 ppm is equivalent to 10 milligrams of acriflavine per liter of treatment water or 37.8 mg per gallon of treatmet water. After 2 hours of treatment, return fish to habitat water.

Warning: This product is intended for use solely on non-edible fish. Keep out of reach of children.

The above drug is not sold in US and for export only and for ornamental fish use only.

Doc Johnson: "More work is needed on Acriflavine. We need to establish the effect on filter bacteria, most of the common pond fish and the actual kill list among the parasites of Koi and Goldfish. Does it kill Orfe and snails? It *does* cause plants to die with amazing rapidity."
