NT Labs - Koi Medications

Acriflavin is a mild antiseptic which is useful as a quarantine solution and to treat fin-rot or ulcers.

Notes
1. Never mix medication unless under expert advice
2. Switch off UV
3. Check water conditions before and during treatment using Pondlab test kits especially pH, nitrite and ammonia - poor water conditions will not help recovery and may cause sickness
