Tetra Lifeguard All-In-One Treatment, 12-Count

Used this to clear up some bacteria growth that had my little Cory cats dying in a 5 gallon! The measurements were accurate just follow instructions and the next day my cloudy tank was clear and they were swimming around with a new energy!

Ive had fish for decades. After moving and being without a fish tank for 2+ years, I finally set up a 45 bowfront again and got new fish…. Strangely, all my newly acquired fish were never as lively as I’m used to. Seemed very lethargic from the moment I brought them home over a month ago. Then I started losing 1-2 fish a day… went down from 30 neon tetras to 12. Also lost a Platy, 3 of my 6 guppies, a Molly, and a couple of Danios. Water was perfect. Temperature was right. And I was not seeing any symptoms on any fish barring isolation shortly before death. Then a week ago I spotted white spots on my favorite fish, Patty the Platty. That was my last straw. I finally bought the lifeguard (multiple boxes). It arrived the next day, and I treated my whole tank. The following morning ALL of my fishies were a LOT more lively. And I mean a LOT more lively. I haven’t lost a single fishy soul since treating the tank.
Patty the Platty is back to her old, active, social, silly self, and the spots are gone.
Needless to say, I got a 10 gallon setup that I am going to be using for any new fish going forward. Every new fish will be treated before introduction to the big tank. Symptoms or not.

Started working the first day! Need more options for larger tanks tho.

OK. George has been really sick. Ich and fin/tail rot. Just sick as could be. I’ve read mixed reviews and I didn’t know what to do. I’d put Indian almond leaves in his tank and he started looking a lil better but was still not moving. So I bought this. I put a tablet in his tank about 20ish min ago and I’ve seen him moving a lil bit. I’m really praying this will work. I’m fond of George. He’s a pretty kool betta. I gave 3 stars because I’m not sure how this is going to work. We’ll see and I’ll update….

OK yall I want to tell you that George has had 1 fin through deaths door for over a week. I have Googled and lifeguarded and Medafixed and I just got some more fin and body cure but I’m not going to give him any of that til I’m through with the lifeguard. Which I saw on Google to take everything out of the tank and do aquarium salt and filter the meds through (without the cartridge) and several sites said turn the heat up it’d kill the bacteria or infection or whatever. So I gradually increased the temp. He got worse but I was still rooting for him. I was not going to just give up on him. I’m kinda fond of him ya know. So I have been going on Google all day everyday and every night I was saying he’ll be dead in the morning. I said that for 5/6 days. He laid on the bottom and sometimes he laid on his side on the bottom. Anyway. One of the times I was looking on Google it said turn the temp down to 60ish it will kill the bacteria through cold. Well he’s just not doing well so I tried it. He laid on the bottom of the tank flat on his side for a night and the next day. Well that night I also said he’ll be dead in the morning. When I woke up and checked on him he was swimming. Upright. He wasn’t going anywhere really just chillin in the corner I’m like kool and tried to feed him some pellets and um yeah no. No good. So I waited and that night once again he was on the bottom of the tank. So heres 4 days with the lifeguard and he’s getting ehh a lil …. well I bought the medfix today and because it’s all natural and has the green tea in it I figured I could use the 2 together. Well I’ll be a son of a gun. He ate some blood worms today. Not a whole lot and not fast but he ate. I was SO happy. I’ve been talking to him giving him encouragement telling him that I’ve got faith in him and just letting him know that I am still here rooting him on. I haven’t just said oh well it’s a fish. He don’t matter. No. He’s part of my family. And boy does he have some fight in him. So I will give the lifeguard a 10 out of 5 stars. It plus some medafix and a lot of TLC he’s coming back onto this side of deaths door. Please if you have a fish that’s sick please use this stuff. I have read some nasty reviews and I don’t get it. George is doing SO much better with the measures I took with him. It’s not just meds. You gotta let them know you’re still there and doing everything in your power to get them well or meds ain’t gonna work . PERIOD!!!

Thanks to the makers of lifeguard and medafix Indian almond leaves and every bit if the faith I had in him and the love I give ALL of my animals. Nit just the furry 4 legged one but the water dwellers too.

The first pic is when I got him. The second is when he started getting really sick but was still swimming. He looks so much worse now but he’s coming back. He ate and that’s a GREAT sign!

I like it, easy to use, good product
