Dosage:

Use one level measure of the included spoon (0.5 gram) for every 25 gallon (95 liters) of aquarium water. If treating in main/display tank (not hospital tank) use 1 level spoon (0.5 gram) for every 50 gallon (190 Liters). After 24 hours make 70-100% water change and add and replace the medicine according to the amount of new water only. To mix the powder properly, use a water bottle to shake the powder some aquarium water, then distribute it evenly over the water or pour it in a high flow area (ex: pump return).
Recommendation: Add 1-2g/L salt along with FlukeX. Repeat the above steps for 7-8 days. Then after 1 week from ending the treatment, repeat the full course again.
Professional use: In hospital tanks, with no feeding and when using water treatment product to neutralize ammonia a single dose can be extended to 48 hours.
Tips:
1- For a more effective treatment raise the temperature to 28 29 C if your fish can handle it. This will accelerate the life cycle of Dactylogyrus to make sure all all life stages of the parasite have reached adulthood and are killed.
2- The addition of salt at the rate of 1g/L during the treatment will enhance it’s effectiveness by removing the mucus that could help shield the parasite from the medication.
