Areas of application: MANACIL is effective against white spot disease (Ichthyophthirius multifiliis) as well as unicellular skin parasites in ornamental fish like Chilodonella, Ichthyobodo necator, Trichodina, etc.
Disease symptoms: Indications of disease caused by parasites are white spots on the skin and fins (Ich). Other above mentioned pathogens can show up as white or gray skin coverings. In general, diseased fish stop feeding, clamp their fins together, are easily startled and scratch against walls and decoration of the aquarium. It is important to treat the fish as quickly as possible when the above mentioned symptoms are spotted so that any further weakening of the animals by the parasites is prevented. If possible, a microscopic examination should be performed to confirm the diagnosis.
