If you want to save money and do it yourself tropical fish medication is the answer. Below is the recipe for curing most fish.
for Making Medicated Fish Food:Instructions
- Pour a ½ cup of fish food pellets into a bowl.
- Add ½ tablespoon of Epsom salt and mix well.
- Add 2 sachets of API General Cure and mix well.
- Add enough tank water to cover the food.
- Wait for 30 minutes to allow the pellets to soak up the medication before feeding to your fish.
- The excess food can be allowed to dry and fed over the next 3 to 5 days.
For best results I would recommend feeding with medicated fish food for a period of 3 to 5 days in addition to treating the tank with medication as per manufacturer’s instructions.
