Aquasonic Bactonex 100ml
Aquasonic Bactonex 100ml (SKU: AQS07) is a preventative antiseptic treatment and a broad-spectrum antibacterial treatment formulated to combat common bacterial diseases, fungal, and protozoal infections in freshwater aquarium fish. It is suitable for use in both freshwater and marine fish-only aquariums and is especially useful during water changes, when introducing new fish, or within quarantine systems.
