Description
Kusuri Fluke-M is a 50mg/g Flubendazole based medication used to eradicate Gill and Body Flukes. This treatment is safe to use without destroying the bacteria in the filter and can be used at any temperature. While dosing with Fluke-M you can continue to feed.
Fluke-M is designed as a one off treatment, but may require a second dose after 7 days in the instance of a heavy infestation. Alternatively you can use Kusuri Fluke–P after 7 days.
If the mucus layer is excessive, we advise dosing with Kusuri Chloramine-T at 15g per 1000 gallons, 12 hours before using Kusuri Fluke-M, this will assist in reducing the mucus membrane where body flukes can sometimes get trapped. Kusuri Fluke-M is not an invasive, toxic medication like Kusuri Malachite Green and Kusuri Formalin 30%. The Flubendazole is absorbed by the flukes and dissolves their digestive tract that subsequently starves the parasite. Fluke-M may require a second dose after 7 days in heavy infestations. Kusuri recommend a mucus scrape and microscope identification prior to a second application.
For use with all cold water ornamental fish and can be used safely with all tropical freshwater fish.
Kusuri Fluke-M has a four year shelf life from date of manufacture and should be used within three months of opening. Fluke-M can also be used for the eradication of pond snails and Intestinal Helminths Worms.

11.8g per 1000 gallons of pond water.

This product is designed as a one off treatment, but may require a second dose after 7 days in heavy infestation. Alternatively you can use Kusuri Fluke–P after 7 days.
