Has anybody got an update on "Active Ingredients"
Especially Waterlife? I'm under the impression Protozin contains Malachite Green (0.085% w/v), Formaldehyde (0.07%) and Copper Sulphate (0.015%), does anybody know about Myxazin and Sterazin (in terms of active ingredients plus strength) I did have all this e-mailed to me over a year ago by Waterlife but have lost the e-mail, i have e-mailed them back today but wondered if anyone on here knows? Also, anyone know about Interpet Anti Velvet & Slime active ingredients? UPDATE: i have this now, see below QUOTE (The-Wolf @ May 3 2006, 07:00 PM) QUOTE (BWBettas @ May 3 2006, 05:28 PM) Methylene Blue Active Ingredient: which companies methylene blue? btw both waterlife and interpet will not state what their active ingredients are, in fact interpet got quite guarded and concerned about my request. I understand that legistation is goning to change very soon in the UK reguarding animal meds and they will all have to put the active ingredients on the bottle. I guess I'll add those as and when. What happened with Interpet mate? Did you threaten to huff puff and blow their house down lol I'll let you know what Waterlife say, i've noticed some of the Interpet meds now state their active ingredients and strengths This post has been edited by fry_lover: May 27 2008, 05:47 PM |

Another member posted the active ingredients of Waterlife Protozin in the scientific forum and i also noticed today that my local LFS had small bottles of Protozin on with the active ingredients, it's definitly what i mentioned above
i.e. Malachite Green (0.085% w/v), Formaldehyde (0.07% w/v) and Copper Sulphate (0.015% w/v). Other active ingredients i know about with medications (Interpet) are Number 9 (Anti Internal Bacteria) Bronopol (0.522%) Formaldehyde (0.9%) Benzalkonium Chloride (0.25%) Number 7 (Anti Slime and Velvet) Copper EDTA (7.14%) Quinine Bisulphate (0.975%) Formaldehyde (0.9%) Benzalkonium Chloride (0.2%) Number 8 (Anti Fungus and Finrot) Phenoxyethanol (40%) Number 6 (Anti White Spot) Formaldehyde (5%) - this is an increase from 4.5% previous Malachite Green (0.047%) Number 5 (Liquisil General Tonic) Bronopol (not sure on strength) Copper EDTA (3.75%) Formaldehyde (not sure on strength) Silver Proteinate (not sure on strength) Number 13 (Anti Swim Bladder) Bronopol (1.045%) Formaldehyde (1.8%) Benzalkonium Chloride (0.5%) w/v is weight/volume %, on some meds it's expressed this way, on others the strength seems to be in mg/per 100mls, to get the above w/v % into mg/per 100mls, multiply the w/v % by 1000 This post has been edited by fry_lover: May 27 2008, 07:27 PM |

Okay i have the ingredients for Myxazin, just looking for Sterazin now really
Myxazin Malachite Green (0.17% w/v), Formaldehyde (0.24% w/v) and Acriflavine (0.11% w/v). When compared to Protozin, the dose of Malachite Green going into your tank is the same (from checking dosing instructions of new style labelled Protozin and Myxaxin). The difference between the two meds, is that Myxazin contains a little bit more Formaldehyde (x1.7 the amount of Protozin) and that Myxazin substitues Copper with Acriflavine. You also add more Myxazin as well, as thats days 1-5 whereas Protozin is days 1,2,3 and 6 |
