Fish do not just need extra care during illness, recovery or quarantine, they need a level of general care. This care should be aimed at maximising your fish’s resistance against infections, parasites, injuries and disease. A daily dosage with eSHa OPTIMA will optimise your aquarium water and your fish’s condition will improve. eSHa OPTIMA will also help reduce the number of fish that would otherwise die because of disease.

eSHa OPTIMA has many uses:

1. Strengthens and supports your fish’s natural immune defence against bacteria, parasites and disease;
2. Reduces fish stress and enhances fish development;
3. Speeds up a full recovery from illness;
4. Strengthens bones and develops muscles;
5. Helps fish display their natural vibrant and vivid colours;
6. Helps young fish to grow healthy and colourful;
7. Helps newly purchased fish recover from their weakened condition (a result of transportation);
8. Increases reproductive activity and aids spawning / release of eggs.

• You can use eSHa OPTIMA with tropical and coldwater fish.
• Do not use eSHa OPTIMA with marine fish! 
• eSHa OPTIMA is very well tolerated by fish, plants and filters. 

eSHa OPTIMA poses no threat to fish, plants or filters. eSHa OPTIMA gives excellent results, especially with tropical fish.

You may continue to filter over non-adsorbing materials such as filter-wool, sand, gravel, etc. Always remove chemical ‘active’ filter media such as (fresh) activated carbon, UV (lights), oxidisers and resins, as these can have a diminishing effect on the action of eSHa OPTIMA. Keep filters running day and night.

Overdosing is not recommended, however, eSHa OPTIMA remains non-toxic (under normal conditions) if more than the recommended dose is accidentally added.

You will benefit the most from eSHa OPTIMA when adding it to your water shortly after your regular water change.

1. To treat the disease organisms and conditions, use a daily dose of eSHa OPTIMA. Calculate the volume of your aquarium (only the area occupied by water). You can use the Dosage Calculator to calculate the correct dosage.
2. Add drops of eSHa OPTIMA to your aquarium by holding the bottle upside down and squeezing the pipette (20 drops = 1 ml).

eSHa OPTIMA can be used with all other freshwater eSHa products! We highly recommend using eSHa OPTIMA with PRO-PHYLL and CRYPTO-PLUS for excellent results!

Never combine eSHa products with products from other brands, unless the manufacturer specifically states that it is safe to do so.
