Aquarium Med Information

Coppersafe

Manufacturer: Mardel
Website: https://www.mardel-labs.com/mardel/f_amedi.html
Description: Coppersafe is a safe, stable and non-staining chelated copper treatment which is effective in fighting Ich (Ichthyophthirius multifillis), Flukes (Gyrodcactylus), Anchor Worms, Chilodinella, Velvet, Protozoan diseases and other freshwater external parasites.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: Yes.
Additional Notes: Before use, remove invertebrates from tank. Coppersafe may be harmful to plants, amphibians and some snails. Does not overdose. Ensure when treatment is ongoing, you dose the replacement water added to the tank (i.e. if 25g of water is removed, add additional Coppersafe to treat 25g of water. This will ensure dosage remains correct.) It is persistent which means it will remain active in the aquarium for over one month. Carbon can be replaced to aid in the removal of the medication after treatment but water changes are the quickest way to remove it after treatment has ended.

Maracyn

Manufacturer: Mardel
Website: https://www.mardel-labs.com/mardel/f_amedi.html
Description: Broad-spectrum, nontoxic antibiotic tablets to treat infections of body fungus (grayish-white material covering mouth; may spread to fins, tail, and body), fin and tail rot, popeye, gill disease, and secondary infections in freshwater aquariums. No water changes, pH, or temperature adjustments necessary if readings are in ideal range.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: If an activated carbon filter is more than 5 days old, it may be left in place. However, fresh activated carbon may reduce the activity of medications and should be removed.
Additional Notes: Treat for five days even if visible signs disappear. After treatment, new activated carbon or charcoal removes any remaining color from water. This product, like all Mardel products, may be used in conjunction with other Mardel Freshwater products.

Maracyn-2

Manufacturer: Mardel
Website: https://www.mardel-labs.com/mardel/f_amedi.html
Description: Broad-spectrum, nontoxic antibiotic tablets to treat infections of fin and tail rot, popeye, gill disease, dropsy, septicemia, secondary and internal infections. Effective even when fish won't eat in freshwater aquariums. No water changes, pH, or temperature adjustments necessary if readings are in ideal range.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: If an activated carbon filter is more than 5 days old, it may be left in place. However, fresh activated carbon may reduce the activity of medications and should be removed.
Additional Notes: Treat for five days even if visible signs disappear. After treatment, new activated carbon or charcoal removes any remaining color from water. This product may be used in conjunction with Maracyn®, Maracide® or Coppersafe®.

Additional Notes: Best used in a quarantine environment. DO NOT USE WITH Piranhas, Metynnis Species, Scaleless Fish, Bottom Feeders, Marine Sharks, Lion Fish or Invertebrates. This product will stain the aquarium silicone.

Nitrofurazone

Manufacturer: Packaged as Furacyn by Aquatronics
Website: Available at most aquatic retailers
Description: Antibiotic for treating: red areas, body streaks, white body slime, open ulcers, wasting away, bacterial infections, and ammonia exposure.
Safe for Biological Filter: No
Remove Activated Carbon: Yes, but do not discontinue filtration
Additional Notes: Do not use with invertebrates. Water discoloration will occur, best used in a quarantine environment.

Metronidazole

Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: Yes
Additional Notes: It is almost impossible to overdose this drug but it is recommended to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations as there is little research to discount possible carcinogenic effects.

Melafix

Manufacturer: Aquarium Pharmaceuticals
Description: Melafix is a patented 1% mixture of CAS Melaleuca (Tea Tree Oil) which is used to enhance healing in fish. Especially useful in healing superficial injuries such as ulcers, bruises, scrapes, cuts, lost scales, etc.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: Yes
Additional Notes: Although it claims to have antibacterial properties to cure flexibactor (mouth rot) and fin and tail rot, this is currently in dispute.

Levamisole Hydrochloride

Manufacturer: Available at most feed stores and coops in oblate form.
Description: Levacide Levasole (levamisole hydrochloride) is a broad spectrum anthelmintic which has proven effective against Camallanus worms and other internal parasites.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: Yes
Additional Notes: It is impossible to overdose this drug. Studies have shown that after treatment, fish actually exhibit a higher tolerance to future re-infestation. This medication is inert at a pH above 7.0 so you should keep this in mind when trying to medicate.

Aquarium Salt

Description: Salt works well against many protozoan parasites such as Costia, Trichodina and Chilodonella as well as flukes and other ectoparasites. It can also assist osmoregulation problems caused by bacterial ulcers; help clear congested gills as well as supporting fish suffering from stress. Because it works in a different way to most disease treatment, it is safer than many pond treatments and will not adversely affect biological filtration in pond filters. It is generally used at fairly high rates in short-term baths or dips, but can be used as a long-term supportive treatment in ponds. Also used to stimulate slime-coat growth.
Safe for Biological Filter: Yes
Remove Activated Carbon: No
Additional Notes: See listing below for recommended salt types and THIS link for curing ICH with salt.
SALT BATHS are effective old remedies for many fish diseases, including Ich. Add one tablespoon of common salt (sodium chloride) to a gallon of water at the same temperature as the aquarium, place the affected fish in this for five minutes; remove if the fish shows stress. When you are done add some tank water to this[2 cups].wait 10 min and add 2 more.Do this for 30 min.Then you can put your fish back into the tank. Use only Use only aquarium salt and NOT iodised salt.After you are done with the water dump in down the drain,donot dump this water in the tank or use again.
Most snails donot like much if any salt.I would not add more than 1 teaspoon of salt for 5 gals.With out snails you can add up to 1 tablespoon to 5 gal of water,to help your fish.Add slowly over time,hours. 

Good salts:

1. Kosher salts
2. Rock salts
2. Freshwater Aquarium salt
3. Non-Iodized salt

Bad Salts:

1. Salts designed for water softener systems. These typically contain an anti-caking agent known as Yellow Prussiate of Soda. When this non-caking agent is exposed to sunlight it can create hydrogen cyanide which is toxic to the fish.

2. Iodized salts. Although there is no evidence to support the theory that iodine in small quantities is not harmful to fish, the lack of evidence to the contrary dictates caution.

3. Salts designed for reef environments as they contain other trace elements that may be harmful to the fish and their environment.

4. Epsom salts. This contains magnesium sulfate which can increase the bowel activity of the fish. But is a good remedy to cure constipation

Maracyn 2 by Mardel (USA) Minocycline used for Bacterial infections

IDK where you live in the US, I'm in WI and as far as I know Minocycline HCL and erythromycin are prescription meds. I have prescriptions for both, though the erythromycin is a 2% solution, I've never used it for my self or my fish. I have used the minocycline, which comes in 100mg capsules. Dosing the meds for fish is actually quite easy, I follow the directions for the fish meds Maracyn and Maracyn-Two. Maracyn is erythromycin, and Maracyn two is Minocycline. 
The directions for Maracyn are- dose 200mg erythromycin per 10gal every day for 5 days, repeat only once if needed.
Directions for Maracyn- two : dose 20mg Minocycline per 10 gal on the first day. Second through 5th dose 10mg Minocyclin per 10 gal. repeat the 5 day treatment only once if needed.
You can use solutions of both meds to treat fish with, but working out the dosage is more difficult and is impossible to say with out knowing the % solution. 
BTW- both of these are prescribed most often as acne meds, so if you can get it OTC where you live look in the acne section.
