The pipette provided measures 1ml and the measuring cap measures up to 20ml of this treatment. You can use the dosage calculator below to calculate the correct amount for your aquarium volume.
To eliminate leeches completely a second dose may be required. If you need to redose or use another treatment wait 7 days and carry out a 30% water change first. When dosing is complete carbon, zeolite and biological filter can be returned to the aquarium. Consider a dose of Quick Safe Start to reestablish a strong biological filter
