Seachem NeoPlex™ 10g – Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic for External Infections

Seachem NeoPlex™ is a potent, broad-spectrum antibiotic formulated to treat a variety of external fungal and bacterial infections in both marine and freshwater fish. Its active ingredient, neomycin sulfate (43%), is highly effective against common ailments such as Fin Rot, Mouth Rot, Bacterial Lesions, and Bloat. Designed for safety and ease of use, NeoPlex™ will not discolor your aquarium water or damage the delicate filter bed when used as directed, making it a reliable choice for maintaining fish health in diverse aquatic environments.

Targeted External Healing & Intestinal Support

NeoPlex™ offers a specialized approach to treating surface-level pathogens while providing a safe avenue for internal intestinal care.

Effective Against External Pathogens: Specifically targets bacteria that cause tissue decay, ulcers, and yellow-grey patches on the gills and mouth.
Minimal Impact on Bio-Filter: Unlike many antibiotics, NeoPlex™ is formulated to be gentle on nitrifying bacteria, ensuring your nitrogen cycle remains intact during treatment.
Excellent for Intestinal Bacterial Infections: Very effective against bacterial infections of the intestines (Bloat); if the infection becomes systemic, it pairs well with specialized internal treatments.
Well-Tolerated Profile: While delicate species may be stressed, it is generally well-tolerated by a wide variety of fish species in both saltwater and freshwater.
Versatile Application: Can be dosed directly into the water column to treat external issues or mixed with food to address internal bacterial concerns.

FAQ Section: Common Questions

How do I dose Seachem NeoPlex™ in the water? Remove all invertebrates (as they are extremely sensitive) and turn off UV, ozone, and chemical filtration (Carbon/Purigen). Use 1 measure (included) for every 8 L (2 US gallons). Repeat this dose every 7 days for a maximum of 3 weeks or until symptoms disappear.
How do I make a medicated food mix? Mix 1 scoop of NeoPlex™ with 1 scoop of Seachem Focus™ and 1 tablespoon of food (frozen or pellet). Add a few drops of water if using dry food. Feed this mix daily for up to 1 week to treat internal intestinal infections.
Is it safe for plants and corals? NeoPlex™ can be stressful to plants and invertebrates if dosed directly into the water. For tanks containing these inhabitants, it is highly recommended to use the medicated food method (using Focus™ as a binder) to ensure the medication is ingested rather than dispersed into the water column.
How do I remove the medication after treatment? NeoPlex™ can be easily removed by using a high-capacity activated carbon, such as MatrixCarbon™. It does not linger in the substrate or filter media once the carbon has been added.
