Pimafix

[MistersMom]

1. what is it?
2. can i use it for fin rot?
3. does it work?

I told my mom to pick me up some Kanaplex or Furan 2, but she calls and says 'the pet store guy said to get this' i was like ' holy chizz!WOW. No, dont ever listen to those F*cktards' then she said that the only place to get kanaplex and furan 2 is online so i will order those today, but as far as what i have right now, is Pimafix as bad as Melafix? i used that and it DIDN'T work, so if so, i will return it or something....

Someone told me that pimafix and melafix can damage the labyrinth organ in a betta which will affect their breathing forever.

Please google.

I did. It didnt tell me anything i needed to know, it just said some stuff on yahoo answers. So i decided to post here and ask the ACTUAL fish experts...

Anything that ends with -fix can damage their labyrinth organ. They have tea tree oil in them that can possibly kill them. For people who had success with it are just lucky that their Bettas didn't get injured.

[MistersMom]

so Pimafix i okay? it only mentioned Melafix as possibly harming the labyrinth...

I think anything with melaleuca is what the article said. Which means it has tea tree oil in it.
