Sick Fish? Try Fish Mox or a Fish Antibiotic
Some fish are really expensive, and after you’ve had a fish for a while its easy to get attached to them and if they get a bacterial infection it can be devastating, especially if you have children. There are lots of different medications on the market for treating fish illnesses and this post discusses some of the Fish Antibiotics made for aquarium and fish use, specifically Fish Mox, Fish Flex, Fish Zole, & Fish Pen.
Fish Mox -
Fish Mox is Amoxicillin and is sold in two strengths, 250 mg, which is called fish mox, and 500 mg which is called Fish Mox Forte. Fish Mox is used to treat common bacterial infections in aquariums and for other fish illnesses. It can be bought through multiple pet retailers online and is much cheaper than going to a vet for a prescription of the same strength amoxicillin…I’m not sure I’ve ever even heard of someone going to the vet for a pet fish.
