Use 5 ml (one capful) of ParaGuard for every 40 liters (10 US gallons). Repeat this dosage daily as needed as long as the fish show no signs of stress.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nParaGuard can also be used as a medicinal bath. For one-hour baths, use 3 ml per 4 liters (1 US gallon) in a container separate from your main aquarium. Baths can be extended if the fish show no signs of stress. Keep in mind that many diseases remain in the water as well as on the fish. Giving the fish a bath treatment is ineffective if they return directly to infected water.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuarantine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThis is a tank set up to monitor and treat new fish before they enter the main aquarium. ParaGuard is gentle enough for preventive use (without visible symptoms) if necessary. Quarantine times vary, but we generally recommend a two-week treatment with ParaGuard to eliminate any potential external infections.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitive Fish\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSome fish are more sensitive to Medicines than others. Eels, loaches, rays, sharks, and many other species are known for their sensitivity to all types of Medicines. If you suspect your fish may be sensitive to Medicines, it is okay to start with a partial dose and increase to the full dose over several days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpires on July 01, 2030\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Seachem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43593972154461,"sku":"SE605","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/0106\/7101\/files\/paraguard-100-ml-1.png?v=1758933944","url":"https:\/\/shopivet.com\/en-us\/products\/11424-paraguard-100-ml","provider":"Shopivet.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
