NT Labs E - X - 5 Anti-parasite Treatment
Malachite green and Formaldehyde, used together, are the best treatment for common external parasitic infections. E - X - 5 is a special formulation of these key ingredients which is added to the pond every day for a five day course.
It is not only an antiparasite treatment but also effectively clears up secondary fungal infections.
Because E - X - 5 is added every day for 5 days, it is safe to use in ponds containing sensitive fish such as Sterlet, Tench, Rudd or Orfe.
E - X - 5 can also be added to the pond as a single dose preventative treatment, for example, in early spring or when new fish are introduced to the pond.
Before treating with E - X - 5:
Remove adsorbent filter material - carbon, zeolite etc.
Switch off UV
Increase Aeration
Allow plenty of time to observe fish
Do not mix medications
Leave 10 days between treatments if no improvement is seen
Dosage:
Add 10 ml of E - X - 5 to every 400 gallons (1820 L) of pond water every day for 5 days.
