Description
NT Labs Aquarium Swimbladder Treatment is for treating tropical or cold water fish when they become lethargic and unstable in the water, either swim on their side or upside down, or even sink to the bottom of the aquarium. This is most common in ornamental goldfish. Available in 100ml and 250ml bottles.
Fish use their swimbladder for buoyancy and stability. When it becomes infected with Aeromonas or Pseudomonas bacteria, it can cause stress which may result in death.
NT Labs Aquarium Swimbladder Treatment gets to work inside the fish to eradicate these disease causing bacteria.
As with most fish ailments, maintaining good water quality is the best form of disease prevention.
