Fix Flucon Tablets (Fluconazole 100mg)
Antifungal Fish Antibiotic for Aquarium Use
Fix Flucon Tablets contain Fluconazole, a powerful antifungal medication used in ornamental fish to treat systemic and topical fungal infections such as Ichthyophonus hoferi, cotton mouth disease, fin and tail rot, and gill disease. Designed specifically for aquarium and pond fish, these tablets target internal and external fungal pathogens without affecting the beneficial bacteria in your tank’s biofilter.
This broad-spectrum fish antibiotic is ideal for aquarists looking to prevent or control fungal outbreaks caused by poor water quality, physical injury, or stress in fish. Fluconazole disrupts the fungal cell membrane, halting the growth and reproduction of fungi, providing rapid and effective treatment.

What Is Fluconazole and How Does It Work in Fish?
Fluconazole is a triazole antifungal agent. It works by inhibiting an enzyme called lanosterol 14α-demethylase, which is essential for the synthesis of ergosterol, a key component of fungal cell membranes. By disrupting membrane formation, it halts fungal cell growth, eventually killing the pathogen.
