The brand also lists common bacterial infections among what it controls. Works by slowly releasing small amounts of a stabilized oxygen-chlorine combination, per Mardel. Mardel notes an unusual ability to treat a wide variety of tropical fish diseases when used as directed. Helpful background from Mardel: fungus infections are usually found at the site of an injury or a recent parasite attack. The brand describes a true fungus infection as having a cotton-like appearance, similar to mold on fruit, bread or cheese, but usually white on a fish. Mardel notes fungus infections are very difficult to treat and are usually secondary invaders. Often follows an injury or recent wounds from parasites or bacteria, according to the brand. Formulated for use with tropical fish in the aquarium. The 4 fl oz size is a practical amount to keep on hand for your tank. Knowing what to watch for makes you a better caretaker, and Mardel’s notes help you spot that telltale cotton-like, usually white growth before it spreads. We pass along every claim here as Mardel’s own, not as a promise, and we make no guarantee of a cure. Because fungus is often a secondary invader after injury or a parasite attack, keeping good water and a calm tank matters too. Always follow the label directions for the right dose and timing. Keep a 4 fl oz bottle of Maracyn Oxy in your fish-care kit so you are ready to act the moment something looks off in your aquarium.
