How Does Fish Doxycycline Work?
Fish doxycycline is an antibiotic, meaning it fights, halts
the growth of, and kills bacteria. This particular type is designed for taking on
the microorganisms that cause several common bacterial diseases in fish.
Examples include mouth, fin, or tail rot, all deteriorating infections; and
septicemia, a lethal and horrific virus.
If you have any concerns about how to administer fish
doxycycline, it is as simple as dipping tablets into the tank. The exact number
depends on the tank’s capacity: as DailyMed instructs,
every 15 gallons of tank water requires a single tablet every 24 hours. They
also recommend “a partial water change … between treatments.” You should
continue the treatment for between five and ten days, until you see a change in
your fish’s condition.
As the tablets dissolve in the water, fish absorb the
doxycycline through their skin. Once it works its way inside them, it gets to
work on killing gram-positive bacteria. With regular treatments and water
changes, the fish may soon recover and swim comfortably once more.
