Seachem Neoplex 5g (SC-682)

NeoPlex is a broad spectrum antibiotic effective against most external infections of both marine and freshwater fish.

When used as directed, NeoPlex does not discolour the water or damage the filter bed. It is well tolerated by invertebrates, although delicate species may be stressed.

Ingredients

Active ingredients: neomycin sulfate (43%). Inactive ingredients: excipients (57%)

Indications

Fin Rot

  • Bacterial infection: Fins appear shredded, frayed, or decaying. Fin Rot is frequently mistaken for damage from fin-nipping fish. Contrary to the name, this is actually caused by bacteria, not fungus.
  • Suggested Treatment Period: 7 days or until infection clears
  • Special Considerations: Fin Rot is often found as a secondary infection (that's an infection that started because the fish was already sick). Make sure to check for additional infections.

Bacterial Lesions

  • Bacterial Infection: Open wounds or sores on the body or tail of the fish. Bacterial lesions appear on the body or tail of the fish. They often look like an open wound, sore, or deterioration of the skin and flesh of the fish.
  • Suggested Treatment Period: Dose in the water 3 weeks
  • Special Considerations: Bacterial lesions often start due to wounds on the fish, either from travel or from residence in a tank of aggressive fish. Using an antiseptic like StressGuard will help to prevent this.

Bloat

  • Symptom of internal infection: Fish's belly appears swollen and may have trouble swimming. If the scales stick out, this is called Dropsy and is better treated with KanaPlex. Bloat is often caused by intestinal infections, but can also be a symptom of internal parasites or damage to the fish's liver.
  • Suggested Treatment Period: 3 weeks or until fungus clears
  • Special Considerations: Bloat is a relatively common and easily treated condition in fish. If left alone, though, it can eventually develop into Dropsy, which is much more difficult to treat. NeoPlex is very effective against bacterial infections of the intestines, but if the infection spreads to other parts of the body, we recommend treating with KanaPlex.

Mouth Rot

  • Columnaris: Damaged fins, ulcers and yellowish patches on gills, tissue on head and mouth eaten away. This infection appears gruesome, but is entirely treatable. It is common to see fungus-like tufts around the face and mouth in addition to deterioration of tissue. It is essential to catch this disease early to prevent long-term damage.
  • Suggested Treatment Period: 1 week
  • Special Considerations: Columnaris is very contagious. If possible, remove the infected fish to treat separately in a hospital tank.

Directions

Dosing in Water

Remove all invertebrates - these are extremely sensitive to medication. Turn off UV filters, ozone filters, and remove chemical filtration like MatrixCarbon and Purigen. Use 1 measure (included) per every 8 L (2 US gallons). Repeat this dose every 7 days to a maximum of 3 weeks. This will treat external bacterial infections.

Dosing in Food

Feed the medicated food mix every day until the infection clears or up to 1 week. This will treat internal bacterial infections. This medicated food can be refrigerated or frozen between feedings.

  • 1 scoop NeoPlex
  • 1 scoop Focus
  • 1 tbsp food (preferably pellets or frozen food)
  • A few drops of water if using a dry food
  • To enhance palatability use with GarlicGuard or Entice.

After Treating

When the treatment period is over, NeoPlex can easily be removed using activated filter carbon like MatrixCarbon. It does not linger in the substrate or filter media of the tank. Remove with carbon before turning on UV.
