keep filters running to ensure plenty of oxygen.

How it Works:

Absolute Aqua-Vet Anchorworm+

Absolute Aqua-Vet Anchor Worm+ Is a powerful chitin inhibitor.

Absolute Aqua-Vet Anchorworm+ works by interfering with the development of the new chitin exoskeleton.

After the treatment has been added to the pond, the parasite will continue to feed and develop normally until it is time to shed its old exoskeleton. It is at this point that the parasites die due to the inability to form a new exoskeleton and mouthparts not being able to form.

How To Use:

Add treatment on days 1, 15 & 30.  Shake bag to de-compact medication before measuring.

Recommended Dosage:

Add 1g of Absolute Aqua-Vet Anchorworm+ per 7.35 gals (33.36 L) of pond water.

Turn off Ultraviolet clarifiers then add the correct amount of medication to a watering can of pond water & distribute contents evenly across the surface of the pond. Turn Ultraviolet clarifier back on after day 45.

When using with river type species such as Orfe, Rudd & Sturgeon ensure extra oxygen is provided. Always wear protective gloves when handling chemicals.

Do not use any other medications for 14 days after adding this treatment.
