After treating my aquarium for several days with Melacure, my water turned very foamy, and hasn’t gotten any less foamy over the past three days. Is this normal?
Yes, it is normal to see some foaming when using AQUARIAN Melacure, and it is not harmful if the proper doses were given. In terms of duration, the foaming of this product can last a variable amount of time depending on what is dissolved in the water. Water that contains a lot of dissolved organics or proteins can experience more foaming that lasts for long periods of time, but in general, if foaming lasts more than a week after discontinuing the treatment, we recommend more frequent water changes and the addition of filtration media to eliminate any remaining medication. Make sure that skimmers are turned off during treatment, as this would contribute to excessive foaming. It may be prudent to turn the skimmer pump flow down when it is restarted after treatment, to account for fish remedy residues until they clear from the system.
Does AQUARIAN Melacure work for fin rot and Ich if my fish is fighting both?
