Fritz Maracyn Oxy is a non-antibiotic medication for freshwater and saltwater aquariums that treats true fungal infections and some bacterial infections by slowly releasing a stabilized oxygen-chlorine combination. It is a liquid solution that is safe for most plants and invertebrates, but caution should be used with starfish or related species. 

Key Details
  • Active Ingredient: Sodium Chlorite 4.3%, a stabilized oxygen-chlorine blend.
  • Targeted Ailments: Treats true fungal infections like Saprolegnia, Ichthyosporidium, egg fungus, and bacterial infections such as fin and tail rot.
  • Symptoms Treated: Effective for fish with clamped fins, popeye, heavy breathing, patchy coloration, or cotton-like growths.
  • Aquarium Compatibility: Safe for most invertebrates and plants, but not recommended for starfish or similar species; does not harm the biological filter. 

Application Instructions
  • Dosage: Administer 2.5 mL (1/2 capful) per 10 gallons daily for up to 5 days.
  • Treatment Course: If symptoms persist after 5 days, the medication is likely not effective and an alternative treatment should be considered.
  • General Use: Increase aeration, discontinue UV sterilizers, maintain filtration (carbon removal is not necessary), and avoid water changes during treatment. If fish show distress, neutralize the medication with an aquarium dechlorinator. For best results, use in a hospital or quarantine tank. 

Expert Opinions
  • Effectiveness: Experts and reviewers note its effectiveness against fungal issues and columnaris, particularly in quarantine tanks.
  • Cautions: Some user reviews indicate it may not work in all cases and, rarely, has been linked to fish deaths, emphasizing the need for accurate diagnosis and careful use, ideally in a hospital tank. Close monitoring of water parameters and avoiding overdose are important.
