Just like humans, fish that are dealing with stress are prone to health problems. When fish are stressed, their immune systems are compromised and their slime coats are easily damaged. These changes mean that they cannot fight off infection from the usually harmless pathogens that already exist within the aquarium, thus increasing risk of disease.

Stressful situations include being netted, travelling, exposure to poor water quality, introduction to a new environment and water changes, all of which can arise when fish are sold and re-homed.

New King British Safe Home combines the healing properties of Aloë vera and silver proteinate. This easy to use, single application treatment has been specifically formulated to aid fish health during times of stress.

Silver proteinate is widely used in human healthcare and is active against bacteria, fungi and some viruses. It also prevents secondary infection of damaged tissues and promotes the rapid healing of wounds and damaged fins. Aloë vera repairs and soothes the slime coat of fish which prevents parasites and other harmful pathogens gaining access to the skin. The addition of Sodium chloride will also revitalise run down fish, by aiding osmosis and helping to keep infections at bay.

 Available in two versions, the 1 litre trade-use only bottle is designed for dispensing into carry-home bags, to ease stress in fish during travel. It also provides you with the opportunity to promote the smaller, 50ml consumer pack. This is for addition to the home tank when the new fish are introduced. The pack also contains a money-off voucher for £1.00 off any King British 100ml water treatment or medicine. The two units are priced as follows:

At only £2.99 for 50ml, make sure you give your customers’ new fish the best start by advising them to add King British Safe Home to their aquarium.
