Cloverleaf Formalin Answer – 2x Concentrate Fish Treatment for Parasites & Fungal Control
Cloverleaf's Formalin Answer (Double Strength) is a highly effective, fast-acting pond treatment designed to combat a wide range of external parasites and fungal infections in ornamental fish. With a 2x concentrated formula, this treatment offers maximum strength in a smaller dose, making it a convenient and economical choice for serious pondkeepers.
Formalin (formaldehyde solution) is widely trusted for its ability to treat common issues like Costia, Trichodina, Chilodonella, and fungal growths, particularly in cooler water conditions when parasites can thrive, and fish immunity is lower.

-

Add directly to the pond water with good aeration. Do not use with salt or other medications unless compatibility is known. Remove zeolite and carbon media from filters during treatment.
Do not use in very high temperatures or when oxygen levels are low. Always ensure strong aeration when using Formalin-based treatments.
🔗 Recommended Combination Treatment:
For increased efficacy against parasites and fungal infections, use in conjunction with Malachite Answer 2x Concentrate. This pairing is widely recommended for dealing with white spot, fungus, and resistant parasite strains in koi and other ornamental pond fish.
