Did you take the carbon out while using the melafix
I have a question. I have a goldfish with fin rot and I got two new gold fish and started melafix for 3 days. Would the remaining 4 days harm the new fish or not?
I bought the pond version in error and was going to throw it out. Now, I can keep it. Thanks so much Luke!
Happy to help!
Same goes for bettafix. I buy the 64 oz bottle of pond melafix to refill my regular sized bottles of both my melafix and bettafix. But the concentration of the melaleuca oil in bettafix is extremely low! So I usually make that from my regular melafix bottle after it’s been diluted from the pond melafix. Good info!
thank you so much for the info! I usually read ingredients but this went right under my nose! thank you thank you!
Melaleuca (mela-luca)is a fancy term for tea tree extract :)
Exactly! Just get a good brand medicine type of tea tree and it lasts forever. Instead of 1 or 3% why not just get 100% and dose accordingly..
@@stephaninordhaus5049 Instead of tea tree, you can use eucalyptus essential oil, it contains even more active ingredients
Well next time I get some I get the pond version
Thanks you for the video little worried when I ordered Pond Metafix by mistake for tropical fish but glad their barely no difference between them.
Wow...was seriously was about to get Melafix for my betta...great advice, thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice setup bro love the goldfishes in the last vid!!
I think they make the other one for people don't accidently overdose the fish. But great point I'll definitely get that next time. Great video
I accidentally bought pond first. But only had a 20 gallon tank. The pond one is my go to for my 55 gallon tank. Only difference between the two Melafix is the concentration.
Keep up the video upload I enjoy your content
My fish has a swollen and cloudy eye. I’m buying this for treatment.
Your thumbnail makes it seem to not buy melafix Pond. Thank you for the confirmation as I was just thinking this as well. Cheers
Melafix is okay for your bubba as well when you are treating the orange one ?
Love the informational videos
Great finding! But too bad, back in Singapore, getting pond type api melafix is almost impossible because theres isnt any demand in my country. Amazon couldnt deliver it to Singapore either. thats a bummer for us! :(
Thanks for the advice.
Wondering if I can clean the tank while using cause it’s getting very cloudy
Great catch bro!
They also have a saltwater version which is the same stuff.
thanks for the info.
Solid bro love your video from Philippines 🇵🇭 ❤ 💕
Thank you 🙌
I added the correct dose for my aquarium 125gallosn so 12.5mls and it creates way more foam than aquarium melafix the entire top is covered witj foam
Read alllll the directions.. it clearly states that you have to get rid of the foam manually lol
can melafix be used for fungal infections? the fungal cure I have turns the water green so I don't want to use it.
Could you do one on diagnosing fish next?
I could try, but there are so many diseases out there its hard to cover them all at once
PLEASE GO OVER THIS STUFF FOR MORE FISH KEEPING CHEMICALS STUFFS 😭❤ THANK YOU
GO OVER STRESS COAT NEXT! haha
Hi can anyone help? My fish has an ulcer and I’m using melafix but wanted to do a methylene blue bath would it be safe to do while melafix is in the main tank ???
Would this product help at all with ick , just checking.
Could I use melafix marine for freshwater? TY
I have 100% concentration of Melaleuca cajuputi oil. It cost me $2 for 30ml.
I didn't know it used for any baterial infection. I'm using it as mosquito repellant.
Absolutely right sir... I used the pond kind and regular kind before I figured out what you just spoke of. My koi started looking funny and a few had died already before I could really diagnose what it was. Wife purchased a fish and dropped it in main tank and I’m guessing it was sick and infested my tank. I used the pond as well cause it just seemed like a stronger dose than the one recommended for tank. Thanks for the great video
I did 1 ounce for half of a 5 gallon bucket for the pond melafix to put my Goldie’s in for a few minutes because I put them in there tank just wondering if that’s too much ?
What happend to your fish? It was too much of a dose.
Do you give your goldfish fluval bug bite??
so what do i need for my koi which is already sick??
I always bought the pond one because I have a pond and it makes the cost so much cheaper because you use less
yep! exactly
Does this do the same as Methlayne blue?
can anyone help me asap. my oranda been well for 2 years today out of no where has cloudy eyes fin deteriorating slim coat is bad. i need to treat him asap i qtd all my fish n treated for ich and general diseases 2 years ago idk how he got infected no new additions at all nothing changed water change all up to date.
Hey I'm a new follower on tik tok I'm a big fan 🐟👍😄
Dumb question but for 55gal tank how much of the pond do I use.
about 5.5 ml i believe, its about 1 ml per 10 gallons if i heard him correctly.
good info
Hi while treating the whole tank does Melafix kills beneficial bacteria?
Thank you.
no
...uh yes google it
No
Can u get gold fish in South Africa
Do you remove fish fitler.?
Does this apply for Pond Stress Coat+ as well?
I can look into it, but it’s probably true
Did you ever find out if pond zyme works for fresh and saltwater aquariums?
API does that with a lot of their products.
Hey luke did a bit more research
Melafix marine isnt a bad bit either If you cant find pond, it's just 1.25% melaluca oil
Can i use Melafix and aquarium salt together??
yes
Look at those cuties!!! 😍
Lol I never buy the "tank" bottle. I always always buy the pond bottles for even the water conditioner. Yes always check the chart for the correct amount per gallon.
Good to know
Hey luke whats the best goldfish to breed cause I want to sell
Read my breeding guide on my website! I talk about it! My website is always linked in the pinned comment or description.
I guess I don't understand the conversion since the bottle says 5ml for 150gallons on the bottle. Could you explain thanks
There 2 different products, one for aquariums & one for ponds. The pond version is a 5% active ingredient solution versus 1% solution on the aquarium version. The pond version, designed for larger fish & larger water volumes, suggests you add 5mil per each 150-gallons of water. So, if you have A 300-gallon pond you add 10ml of the pond version. I believe the aquarium version suggests 5ml of product for every 10-gallons of aquarium water being treated (tank size). This video may seem like sound logical advice on its face with all things being equal but of course they're not equal. He does not take into account the dilution rate versus water volume of the medication or the fish size variations between ponds & aquariums. He doesn't even mention them. There may good reason for the difference in active ingredient percentage between the 2 products. Using the wrong one may not be a good idea. Perhaps that a question the manufacturer could answer for us. I'd would use the proper meds at the suggested rates until the manufacturer states it is safe to do otherwise.
@@coreymelanson6729have you received an answer from the manufacturers? If not how are you putting your 2 cents that it doesn't work?
can melafix also kills fish lice?
I was just thinking this!! Lol good eye 👁
Dude my heart dropped when you started your video with never ever buy this lol ha you got me
When you get new fish do you isolate them from your other fish for a couple of days?
more like a few weeks, but yea
Luke's Goldies I usually have them separated for a week and a half just in case of any parasites
How much Si

Hey luke!
Hi!
I’m trying to purchase another fish from goldfish island. Well I’m debating but I want a bubba😉
haha they routinely post black ranchus on their site, make sure to use the discount code LUKE
@@lukesgoldies just bought cupcake 🐠
1 ml per gallon or 1 ml per 10 gallons
3:54 lol it's called marketing buddy. That's how they make their money. Not from savy customers but the ones who don't take the time to compare.
Ik this is off topic but I just bought the jungle g fuel and that shii bussin😫
Hey hey
Thanks for Your Video. I was about to buy this online. Now I'm Not
I actually just used this and it went horribly wrong, lost 2 fish in the second dosing and then lost 5 more when I did an emergency water change to dillute it
Which one? The pond one or the tank one?
Thanks…🌟🌟🌟🌟
You have BEAUTIFUL EYES…🌺🌺🌺🌺
Is bubba a ranchu?
Yes!
I also know how many gallons are in my pond... 🙄
Basic Chemistry =] Of course, buy the 5% =] and dilute as necessary =]
Seachem stress guard is much better ....!!!!
well keck i got scammed :(
I did too haha
They should just call it melafix plus
Crap, I bought the wrong one:(
Wasted some cash
This is the only thing allowed to treat fish in pet store in Canada 😒😭
BRO MY MOM JIST BOUHGT THAT!!!!
Too late, I got it.
It just killed all my fishes
Cant relate cuz my fish aren't as clumsy and dont get sick😎
Dude, they differentiate pond from aquarium for a reason. Your not taking into consideration the size of fish etc.. Don’t confuse people. Theirs a few of your videos that are questionable.
The ONLY difference is the concentration, so you simply dose less volume than the aquarium one as recommended on the bottle. The size of the fish is irrelevant, look at the concentration and dosing for each bottle, it’s equivalent.
Same concept for kid meds vs adults meds. Only difference is concentration. It’s so stupid people done kill their children.
Don't buy either one! It smells nice but there's absolutely no evidence that it helps fish in any way. Fun fact: fish remedies can make any claim they want on their labels with no proof!
First
yes you are!
Its basically the same thing bruh the pond one is stronger cause it's outside lmao
Both "fixes" are useless really anyway. Don't waste your money. It's a tonic, makes you feel like you are doing something, but it doesn't. Clean water, maybe .1% salt, will do more towards healing minor things..
You repeat yourself 10 times dude
All their stuff is junk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
