Aqua-pics Medicating 10kg — Largest bulk medicating salt for wholesale and retail fish health
A wholesaler, large retailer or commercial fish health operation treats illness and injury across far more water than a single hospital tank, and keeping medicating salt on hand at that scale needs a pack built for it rather than a shelf full of small bottles. Aqua-pics Medicating 10kg (SKU: 124716) is the largest size in Aqua-Pics’ phosphate-free medicating salt range, added to aquariums when fish are suffering from disease, bacterial infection, physical damage or parasites such as white spot. Raising salinity this way helps prevent the secondary infections that often follow those conditions and supports the fish’s own healing process, used alongside whatever medication is treating the underlying illness rather than instead of it. At 10 kg, the pack is intended for wholesale, commercial or large multi-tank use rather than a single aquarium.
The tank-treatment rate is 125 g per 100 L added directly to the aquarium when needed, which a 10 kg pack covers for about 8,000 L across its life, enough to treat a substantial number of tanks through an extended outbreak or ongoing health programme. For a concentrated salt bath, 125 g dissolved in 5 L of aquarium water in a separate container gives a shorter, stronger dip rather than a whole-tank dose, and 10 kg makes around 80 baths of that strength. Because the salt is phosphate-free, dosing it across many tanks at this volume does not add the phosphate load that some aquarium salts would at the same scale. The same salt is also sold as “Aqua-pics Medicating 4.5kg” for smaller operations, and as “Aqua-pics Medicating Salts” in 150 g, 250 g and 500 g retail packs for single-tank use.
Usage & Application
