What Are the Benefits of Fix-Zithro Azithromycin Tablets for Fish?

  • Broad Spectrum of Activity: Azithromycin acts against a broad spectrum of bacterial infections, including gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. This is highly useful in combating infections by species such as Mycobacterium, Aeromonas, and Vibrio, which are common in aquatic environments.
  • Active Against Internal and External Infections: Azithromycin is versatile since it is effective for internal and external infections in fish. It's especially effective in the case of ulcers, skin lesions, fin rot, and internal infections like septicemia.
  • Long-Lasting Action: Azithromycin has a fairly long half-life, which is an advantage because the amount needed in the system can remain higher for longer than other antibiotics, thus minimizing dosing. This can minimize stress caused by frequent treatments.
  • Easy to Administer: Azithromycin tablets can be given by dissolving them in aquarium water or mixed with fish food, hence an easy way of treating the fish, especially when one is dealing with a school of fish or those fish that are difficult to capture.
  • Low Impact on the Fish's Beneficial Bacteria: In the light of a comparison to other broad-spectrum antibiotics, Azithromycin would least interfere with the positive bacteria of the aquarium. Thus, this can keep the aquarium's biological filtration system in health.
  • Treats Varied Range of Bacterial Diseases: Azithromycin works to combat an array of prevalent bacterial fish diseases like Mouth Rot, Gill Disease, Fin Rot, and Pop-eye, together with the more systemic ones like Septicemia and Swim Bladder Disease.
