Product Information

A very useful product for the first aid box, Tamodine Wound is recommended for cleaning cuts and infected skin. Simply apply Tamodine to wet cotton wool and gently cleanse the surface of wounds. Once clean, wipe off any excess, and release the bird. Do not overwinter diseased fish with ulcers outdoors, or the bacteria will start up before the fish's immune system does. Bring them in and treat them. Fish have a body temperature which essentially mirrors that of the environment and the temperature at which they would be expected to freeze and die would be the freezing point of their blood plasma. They have been shown to be able to resist this by 1oC in ways not really understood except in the presence of ice formation. The presence of ice appears to encourage the formation of ice crystals in the skin and circulation, resulting in death.

Timodine Cream can also be used to treat the following skin conditions when there is infection with Candida albicans: Sudden temperature changes can be lethal so provide a deep area (5-6ft) for the fish to move into if possible. Protect the pond using a frame with polythene cover, if the pond is raised consider insulating the sides. Do not bang on the ice to break it. Melt it with boiling water.

Not to be used on open wound at concentration above 1%.

Carp are by nature a warmwater fish. However they are extremely tolerant and will overwinter perfectly well in unheated ponds. EFSA (2008) suggests that carp will tolerate down to 2oC - actually they will go lower but some will die through stress or superchill. Fish with carp pox are best isolated if badly affected and treated occasionally with CHLORAMINE T to keep secondary bacterial infections at bay. Recovery from this viral disease is usually spontaneous as the immune system gets going by June/July. Supplementation with ACE-HIGH is well worthwhile.Prolonged use of Timodine Cream could increase the likelihood of the cream stopping being effective for you, and of you developing an allergic reaction to the cream Tamodine Wound is a powerful antifungal and antibacterial tamed iodine veterinary medicine.

Cushing’s syndrome (a condition where levels of steroid hormone become too high in the body). Symptoms include a puffy and rounded face that is also red, stretch marks and acne.

Ice crystal formation in tissues rips cells apart, this will be especially acute in gills which have extremely cold water possibly with forming ice crystals in it being pumped across them all the time. Koi become fairly dormant at about 4-5oC (~40oF). You should not feed as temperatures are falling towards this region. Koi do not feed much below 10oC (50oF). Above 12oC they can be fed two or three times a day. Change 25-50% of the water in spring, from the bottom, to remove mulm, Use ACE-High in the Spring to top-up levels of vitamins that have been depleted over the winter. Timodine Cream is used to treat inflamed skin conditions, particularly where the fungal infection Candida albicans can occur.

Tamodine is suitable for cleaning mouth rot lesions in the mouths of reptiles. These are likely also to need antibiotic treatment from a Veterinary Surgeon. Working with fish multifilament nets present special problems for disinfection due to the weave. This has been shown to require special efforts, as fish mucus has a way of entering the weave of the net as it moves under the weight of the fish. This can take pathogens with it and then they can be effectively hidden from disinfection. We suggest after use they be dropped into a tank and left overnight in a combination of Ark-Klens and Virkon Aquatic. Virkon Aquatic contains tensides to help the disinfectant penetrate but the special problems of nets bear extra effort. This mixture should be rinsed off before nets are used. Tamodine is so simple, unlike other topical treatments theres no need to apply several different stages, just apply Tamodine, leave for a few seconds, then release the fish.

Even if you don't use it as a routine (which you should), use ACE–HIGH (to enhance levels of "stress alleviating" vitamins) in the Autumn.

Superchill’ is a phenomenon which kills atlantic salmon in Canada, due to exposure to ice formation. The fish, like the koi in this case can tolerate the temperatures but close proximity to ice formation in the environment causes crystal formation in the skin and ensuing damage similar to frostbite. Hydrocortisone is a mild corticosteroid (or steroid) which fights the inflammation that causes redness, swelling and itchiness
