Product details
Fritz Maracyn OXY 16oz (44060) is an aquarium water medication used to treat certain tropical fish diseases, including fungal infections and common bacterial infections. It works by slowly releasing a stabilized oxygen–chlorine combination when used as directed, which helps address issues seen with conditions such as Saprolegnia, Ichthyosporidium, and egg fungus, as well as related problems. In practical terms, it’s intended for situations where a fish shows signs consistent with fungal or bacterial disease—often after injury, parasites, or other stress—and where fast treatment is recommended.
Features:
- Targets fungal infections associated with Saprolegnia, Ichthyosporidium, egg fungus, and related species
- Also used for common bacterial infections
- Provides slow release of a stabilized oxygen–chlorine combination when dosed as directed
- Often used when disease symptoms include signs such as clamped fins, swollen eyes, patchy coloration, heavy or rapid breathing, or behavioral changes
- Fungal infections are described as cotton-like and usually white on fish, often developing from injuries or wounds
- Special note: Fritz Maracyn OXY has been shown to be effective against certain gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria
- All suspected bacterial infections should be treated immediately (follow the packaging directions)
