Kanaplex, 5 g(0.18 oz)

KanaPlex is straightforward to measure and use, and the instructions are easy to follow. The container is small, but you use such a small amount at a time that it goes further than it initially looks like it will. I like keeping this on hand with my other aquarium supplies so I don't have to scramble to find something when a fish starts showing signs of a problem. Overall, it's easy to use, doesn't require a complicated treatment process, and Seachem is a brand I've had good experiences with for aquarium products. Definitely something worth keeping in the fish cabinet rather than waiting until you need it.

Over 30 one-month-old guppy fry in one of my aquariums started developing needle-like tails. In the morning, I noticed one of my fry had died overnight and several of my fry looked lethargic at the water surface with one fry floating on his side and struggling to remain upright. Now, while I'm no stranger to keeping freshwater fish, I just started keeping guppies a little over a year ago and this is the first time I've seen such a wide-spread infection with such a fast mortality rate. Admittedly, this tank in question was a bit overcrowded, since one of my female guppies gave birth a month ago with a surprisingly large batch of fry (for me at least). Since keeping guppies, finding spare tanks to keep each new batch of fry in has been a bit challenging. After testing the water for ammonia and finding close to 1ppm, I immediately separated four of the most lethargic fry into their own tank (since some of the more healthy-looking fry were trying to eat them) and spent the next two days performing large water changes. The fry only got worse, now with almost all of the fry displaying pointed needle-like tail fins even though water quality had considerably improved with 0 ammonia and nitrite. And sadly, another two fry that I had separated the first day hadn't made it. I was now left with one really sick fry (in the separate tank) and 28 less-than-active fry who looked like they were only getting sicker. A few weeks ago, I had purchased some Kanaplex to try for a just-in-case situation like this when time would be crucial. I had never used Kanaplex before, but I had lost some fish in the past because I wasn't able to get the medication quickly enough. I liked that this medication doesn't destroy the good beneficial bacteria in the filter bed, but I was very hesitant about using this in my fry tank because of how young and weak my fry were - I wasn't sure if they'd be able to handle medication. But I figured, they were already suffering and going to die if I just did nothing more than change the aquarium water, so I put some in and hoped for the best. Two days later, I already started to see some improvement. My fry were swimming more actively and I noticed some of them were starting to spread out their fins more. The lone fry in the really sick tank still looked somewhat the same to me, though he wasn't flipped over and paralyzed like many of his brothers who had died were. He was still swimming around the surface, moving his fins, so I thought that was a good sign. The best news was that I had lost no more fry since treating both aquariums. I had thought I would soon have a massive fry death on my hands, so that alone was something to celebrate. Following the instructions, I treated both tanks with the second dose of Kanaplex on the third day. Every day, the fry seemed to be doing better and better. Today on day 5, all 28 fry in the healthier tank are very active, eating as usual with fins fully expanded. Just looking at them, you would've never known they were sick! The lone fry in the separate tank is also doing very well. Just yesterday, he started eating for the first time since the infection. While his tail fin still looks somewhat pointy, the milky white film on it is nearly gone and it's no longer as clamped. I also noticed he's been spending less time on the surface and more time moving around the aquarium! Before I had little hope he'd make it and now I really do think he'll make a full recovery. I just added the third and last dose to the tank. I'm really looking forward to adding the lone fry back into the tank with his brothers and sisters. I also bought a larger aquarium to house these fry once they get bigger. Very happy with the results I've received from Kanaplex.

This stuff works! I had a problem with my veil tail betta and this finally cleared up his tattered, battered fins. I'd tried aquarium salt, Bettafix (which totally doesn't work), and finally bought this after seeing some videos about tough cases of fin rot. His tail was almost completely gone (from stress in a community tank and corydoras nipping him), and after a full course of this, it is silky again and growing back in. Yay!!

Realized a little late one of my corydoras had developed bacteria fin rot after a nip and rush ordered this, set up a hospital tank, and after one cycle of kanaplex he is back in the main tank regrowing his fins and whiskers and back to his normal energetic self!

Seems to work well but the dose spoon is difficult to use....

Received quickly and still in the healing phase have a couple days left but so far so good the item was exactly what it was supposed to be I would recommend for the smaller dose bottle like the one I got maybe they put it in a shorter vial to make it easier to scoop the medication and I would also like to say that on the inside of the opening of the bottle there should be like a thing where you can drag the spoon along to level out your scoop but other than that the medications on point

This was easy to dose out. I asked AI how to properly do it into a smaller hospital tank. My Betta unfortunately became sick with Saddle Back Disease. I wish I had this on hand sooner. I notice they do not sell it at Petco. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to save my Betta. But it did cure her Saddle Back Disease. Now I'm prepared for next time if illness strikes any of my other fish. A must have for any fish keeper to have on hand!

my betta got a bacterial infection and this worked wonders. i separated my betta from his original tank into a small makeshift "hospital tank" and dosed him maybe 1/2-3/4 of a normal dose, because its a strong medication. it took him days but he made a full recovery! this is a must in my fish bin

it's in a safe box, so the items are very secure, and they deliver very fast.

Excelente producto si me quito el hongo a mi pecesito pero si estaba bastante malito

This product made my Betta heal from his severe fin rot. Love it!
