What’s the difference between Fish Mox and Mox Forte?

Fish Amoxicillin Forte contains a higher concentration of amoxicillin per dose. This makes it suitable for treating more severe infections or larger fish. Fish Mox is suitable for milder infections and smaller fish.

How to Use Fish Mox & Forte (Amoxicillin):

  • Dosage: Follow the instructions on the product label carefully. Dosage is based on the volume of water in your aquarium and the chosen product.
  • Water Changes: Perform a partial water change (25-50%) before starting treatment and between doses.
  • Treatment Duration: Complete the full course of treatment as recommended on the product label, even if symptoms improve.
  • Quarantine Tank: It is highly recommended to treat infected fish in a separate quarantine tank to avoid disrupting the biological filter in your main aquarium.

Important Considerations:

  • Accurate Diagnosis: Ensure the fish’s illness is indeed bacterial before using antibiotics. Amoxicillin will not be effective against viral, fungal, or parasitic infections.
  • Monitor Water Parameters: Amoxicillin can affect the beneficial bacteria in your filter. Monitor ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate levels closely during treatment.
  • Consult a Veterinarian: If you are unsure about the diagnosis or treatment, consult a qualified aquatic veterinarian.
