Attacking False Fungus

Attacking False Fungus

External false fungus/columnaris can be treated with potassium permanganate at a concentration of 2ppm for 8-10 hrs. As with any treatment, fish should be observed closely and if there is any signs of stress, you should do water change immediately. After treatment, you need to do a complete water change because potassium permanganate is harmful to soft tissues like the fish's gills and you need to clear it out so as to give the fish a chance to recover. If you can find phenoxyethanol, you can also use it to make a bath to immerse the fish in. The advantage of using phenoxyethanol is that phenoxyethanol will also treat both the false fungus and true fungus so if you make a wrong indentification it works too.
