Other Products

1. Bacterial Treatment (columnaris)

   Bacterial treatment for columnaris. One packet treats 1000 gals, so scale up the amount you need. I will make up amounts for additional gallonage = 1,500 etc.
   
   Do not use with (plants) uv and protein skimmer off for 10 days. Treatment remains in the pond for a further 10 days, making it 20 days in all.
   
   Safe with koi, sturgeon, orfe, tench and goldfish.
   
   You must have good water to use this product, so please send water test results on your email order.
   
   1 packet £5.80 P&P £1.00
   
   Bacterial Treatment Plus
   This is an ulcer treatment using a similar, but stronger, version of the bacterial treatment above, to which you add alcohol (I found a good whisky is ideal).
   It comes in a 2gm packet which will make around 20 treatments and takes the form of a paint on, which remains on the fish for a long time - days not hours - and the alcohol takes the treatment deep into the wound. My test results have been very good - remember an ulcer caught early and treated is a healed ulcer.
   
   It comes with full instructions for use.
   £5.20 P&P 40p
   
   Wound Disinfectant with Sterilising Salt
   
   You add salt to ½ pint of cold boiled water 4-5 hours prior to treatment to allow the salt to dissolve. With this saline solution, you clean and remove any necrotic tissue around and on the would, including ulcers. Then dry with paper towelling and paint the infected area with the amber coloured liquid. Keep the fish out of the water for at least 2 minutes to allow to dry.
   
   This can be repeated every three days.
   
   If there is no response after three applications (i.e. white tissue) then the would or ulcer is not superficial.
   
   20ml inc. salt and full instructions £12.60, P&P 2.50 or collection.

13. Potassium Permanganate *
    100% pure fine powder dissolves instantly
    50gm £10.30 P&P £3.00 or collection.
    
    To make potassium permanganate paste, add 2gm of this product to 0.5ml of boiled water - add the water whilst it's still too hot for your fingers and mix well for at least 5 mins. Allow to stand and cool. Use within 3 hours.
    
    It will not burn the fish like iodine would if the wound is deep. It can be used on lips, head, fins and body but dilute 50% for eyes.
    
    Note keep away from inside the gills and throat. Keep the fish out of water for at least 2-4 mins (the longer it's on the fish before it's returned to the water the better it will work - I allow 5-10 mins). It can be done without anesthetic, but use anesthetic when wound / ulcer/ infected fin ray base are large or well advanced, or on a lymphocystis tumour.
    
    Potassium permanganate needs to be applied once every 4 days, or until healing is seen (new whitish tissue), with a maximum 4 treatments. Then leave to heal. If no healing is seen then it's more serious than you thought.
    
    Note - only use high grade and fresh potassium permanganate or you will make the infected area worse or even encourage a bacterial infection. DRY AND CLEAN the WOUND before any of the above. Do not use below 15^oC.

    30ml £20.50 P&P 3.00 or collection.
15. Cryptobia water treatment *
    30ml £19.80 P&P £3.0
16. Blanket Weed Treatment.(aquatic herbicide)
    This WILL remove all blanket weed. Requires two treatments. Treatment will damage lilies and submerged and floating water plants, so remove these before treatment, and remove ALL blanket weed on them. Keep these plants out of the pond for the full 8 week treatment. This is the only way to remove this unwanted weed. Pussy footing about with this problem will get you no where. The blanket weed will be gone within 4 weeks. The second dose kills the weed's roots. It will not damage fish or filters. Filters need to be running, and will need to be cleaned after the first and second dose. Recommended times of treatment: October to December and March to May, which will then allow you to use a more organic and plant friendly form of treatment, which as you know, will only keep blanket weed on a slow growth cycle not kill it.
    60gm for 1,500 gallons
    120gm £35.68 P&P £3.50 or collection.
    e.g for 4000gal = £71.36 for four doses.

    For use in treatment containers with water temperature above 18^oC best 20^oC and air stone use at 1oz per gallon. The fish remains in treatment for 20-30 days. Used for costia, trichodina and childonella. Its main use is for saprolegnia fungus, as seen on the picture, which is easily identified as fungus. It goes green and the fish looks like its got green fur growing on its body.
    
    1kg £10.50 p/p £6.00 its much cheaper to collect.
    Full instructions included.
    
    This is a pure organic treatment -1oz per gallon is minimum dose. It's too expensive to be used in a pond. When I did trials in 2000, I used treatment ponds 20-30-50-100 gallons with goldfish shubunkins and a 2000- 4000 gallon stocked with koi and sturgeon. (Do not use with orfe rudd or tench) Both systems results were fantastic. It can be used with supaverm, malacite green and acriflavin. On test it was used against all the above and all infections cleared without the use of any of additional chemicals other than supaverm, as one of the test ponds fishes had saprolegnia fungus, but they where also massively infected with body fluke.
