Jungle TB630W Tank Buddies Fungus Clear, 8-Tablet

We got our first fish -a betta-a couple of weeks ago. When we bought him, there was a tiny black spot on the tip of his tail and, naively, thought it was just part of his natural coloring. Unfortunately, the tiny black spot started spreading. It was fin rot. I read on the internet that frequent water changes were the best treatment, so we changed his water daily but the black kept spreading and his other fins started to look funny, too. After about a week of daily water changes, we purchased this product.

1 tablet is good for 10 gallons. Our tank is only 5 gallons so I broke the tab in half. It broke easily into two equal pieces without any crumbling. I put half into the tank and it fizzed and turned the water a greenish-blue color. The next day, all the black on our betta's tail was completely gone! Three days later, his fins are still not as good as new, but they show obvious signs of healing. He is acting more energetic, eating more, and just doing better all around. I am really amazed at how quickly and how well this product worked and I wish we had used it right away instead of letting him suffer through a week of ineffective water changes.

The box does contain the generic warning that some ingredients have been found to cause cancer in the state of California. I used gloves when breaking the tablet and will be very careful with future water changes.

Today is the third day after use and the water still has a greenish tint. His aquarium has silk plants in various colors and none of them seem to have been dyed. Even though there is an obvious tint, the water is still clear so it doesn't really look dirty or gross.

Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this product and would definitely recommend it to anyone dealing with fin rot.

Our lab uses these tablets to treat a variety of fish illnesses (dropsy, fungus, etc.). They work! This stuff will stain sand if you just drop the tablet into the tank, so I'd suggest dissolving it in a bucket or beaker before adding it to the treatment tank.

Fish in question: Brachyhypopomus gauderio (scaleless, similar to black ghost and other knife fish)

Tankmates: Only others of same species

Substrate: Sand, stained by tablets

I'm not sure that this product is still being produced, which is a total shame. I have had two goldfish come down with dropsy at two separate times, and each time I used this medication to CURE THEM. Yes, they are STILL ALIVE even after they both had extremely bloated, pine-coned bodies. I really thought they would not make it, but with the help of this medication (as well as some other special attention), they both were able to pull through. I recently purchased four of these packages each contain 8 tabs (1 tab per 10 gallons) in case they go out of stock. I highly recommend this product.

Keep in mind that it does turn the water a cool (or sickly, depending on who you ask) blue/green color, so its best to take out any decor you may have.

I'd bought Jungle Tank Buddies: Fungus Clear, a couple of months ago "just in case". These things are difficult to find in PetSmart and PetCo, so I decided to buy it from Amazon and stock it.

Just Wednesday, I saw that my large Red Cap Oranda was getting red streaks in his veil finds and he had fin rot. He also had red spots on his body. One of the baby Lionchus had died and had contaminated the water. He was hidden behind one of the large sponge filters. My other goldies in the same 110 gallon fish tank were fine.

I changed 30% of the water and, since this is a big tank and they require that you mix the tablets in a separate bucket before adding to the tank when used in larger tanks, I poured the pre-mixed solution and very blue water in.

The first day, "Spartacus", the red cap oranda, went from floating at the top {head first} to swimming around and even eating a little. The second day was the worst. I thought I'd lost him. He was really sick and was upside at the bottom of the tank, and he didn't eat. The third day, he was on the mend. He was at least upright but still at the bottom of the tank although he did take some food.

Throughout these days, I had noticed that the red streaks were disappearing and today, the fourth day, I'll be doing a 30% water change and Spartacus is A-OKAY! Fungus Clear from Jungle Tank Buddies has saved my fish from almost certain death. I recommend everyone who has goldies to keep these tablets in stock. They will save your fish.

*** UPDATE 04/25/2013 *** ~ Spartacus is 100% back! He's eating and swimming and back to his old self begging for food whenever I pass the tank. No more streaks. Fins are on the mend. And he's happily swimming along. I did have to use a second doze just to be sure. Now I have put a carbon filter in my Rena XP3 filter to remove the medicine together with weekly water changes. These tablets really work and today I'm going to purchase more for "just in case". Thank you Jungle Tank Buddies!

Bought this product to clear up a minor case of fungus on my big goldfish. The small patch cleared up quite readily. Be warned, the product will change the color of the water. We thought the change looked rather cool. Wonder what the fish thought?
