NT Labs Anti-Internal Bacteria is a specialized medication formulated to treat internal bacterial infections in both tropical and coldwater aquarium fish. The treatment uses Chloramine T as its primary active ingredient, which is absorbed directly into the system of the fish to eradicate pathogenic bacteria without harming biological filters or live plants.
🦠 Target Pathogens & Symptoms
The medication specifically targets internal disease-causing bacteria such as Pseudomonas, Aeromonas, and Vibrio. You should use this treatment if your fish exhibit the following symptoms:
Lethargy or extreme inactivity
Clamped fins
Loss of appetite or refusing to eat
Red blotches or blood streaks on the fins or under the body
Advanced systemic signs like pop-eye (exophthalmia) or dropsy (fluid retention causing a pine-cone appearance)
📋 Dosage and Instructions
Always follow the manufacturer guidelines provided by NT Labs to ensure safe administration:
Standard Liquid Dose: Apply 10 ml per 50 litres of aquarium water.
Application: Calculate your tank volume, shake the bottle thoroughly, mix the required dose into 1 litre of aquarium water, and pour it slowly into the tank.
Frequency: The treatment can be safely repeated every other day, up to a maximum of four times if symptoms persist.
High pH/KH Exception: For aquariums with a high carbonate hardness (12 dKH or more) and a pH above 7.5, the dosage can be safely doubled to compensate for water chemistry.
⚠️ Important Safety Precautions
Filter and Plant Safe: The formula will not crash your nitrogen cycle or damage live flora when used at working concentration.
Chemical Incompatibility: Do not use this product within 24 hours of adding water conditioners like NT Labs Tap Water Safe.
Chemical Filtration: Always remove activated carbon or any chemical resins from your filter before dosing, as they will pull the medication out of the water.
