When a fish stops eating, every medicated food in the world is useless. But when a fish still eats and you suspect internal parasites — Hexamita, Spironucleus, head-and-lateral-line erosion (HLLE) — Metro Double Pellet is the most painless way to dose. A sinking pellet impregnated with metronidazole at therapeutic concentration: fish eats, fish gets treated. No netting, no chemical bath, no stress.
Active ingredient: metronidazole, impregnated in a high-quality protein pellet. Used as the sole food source for 5-10 days during treatment. Does not disrupt biological filtration since the antibiotic stays in the gut, not the water column. For exact dosing and feed schedule, see the Misc tab on our Medication Dosing Calculator.
Treats: internal flagellates (Hexamita, Spironucleus), bloat, some internal bacterial infections, head-and-lateral-line erosion (HLLE).
Use in: quarantine, hospital tank, or display — fish must be actively eating.
Reef safe: yes.
