Worth Every Penny! :o)
Date: January 10, 2009
"About a week ago I had a sick goldfish in my tank...he had white spots all over him, and was frequently at the top of the tank. I did my research and discovered it was a fungus, and quickly did my homework on the type of medicine to use.
After reading the other ratings, I decided to give this a try in conjunction with Melafix and a pinch of aquarium salt. It started working within the first hour of adding it to a separate tank with the sick goldfish. I am happy to say that the fish is now swimming around a lot better, and eating habits have improved also. I would definitely recommend this product...it was money (very) well spent!!"

Hooray for PimaFix!!!
Date: May 30, 2008
"I keep a beta, Smokey Joe, in my cubicle at work. He is a tad spoiled and won't eat unless I hold it on a spoon just under the water line. Well, I was in a hurry and just dropped some vegetable cubes in there and left for the day. Well I came back in the morning and the poor guy is covered in a white slimy fungus :( THAT QUICK!!! I was so upset with myself. So I ran to PetCo and grabbed some aquarium salt and PimaFix. Within minutes all the slime was gone and I am hoping it is clearing up any remaining unseen fungus, hopefully only external, but from other reviews it seems like if there is any internal infection he should be cured of that as well! Thanks for a great product! :)"

"I use this combined with Melafix to treat any number of fish ailments. They have yet to let me down. I also love the fact that they are a natural alternative to some harsh meds."

Pimafix worked great!!!
Date: April 3, 2008
"My 8 year old goldfish had by the base of his fins in 2 spots a red sore with some cotton/lint like stuff coming off of it....I figured out it must be fungus (maybe with a bacteria infection as well?) First I added some Aquarium salt to the tank, and that seemed to help the sore some, then the next day started treatment with the Pimafix. It worked great for this problem. I have an 80 gallon tank with 8 large goldfish in it, and I treated the whole tank as it said on the bottle for 7 days. Then did the 25% water change at the end. (I also had old carbon in my filter, like 5 months old, so I just left them in during treatment, although the bottle said to remove them....but I thought they were old enough to leave in, and removing it had made my filter leak)
My fish recovered and I was VERY pleased with this product.
Good luck with your fish as well!!!

Sigh of Relief
Date: January 28, 2007
"I purchased a 29 gal. tank to put two small oscars in until they got bigger. I also bought some guppies while I was at the store. Within the first few hours, two had died. I immediately moved them into the currently unoccupied 29 gallon so that they wouldn't make my other fish sick. There were only 3 left, so they were freaking out, so I put some of my other guppies, since I had so many (I breed them) in with them, aware of the risk of them getting sick too. Well, they did. BAD. Every single fish's fins were clamped. After 3 or 4 weeks of using jungle fungus tabs, I had little to show for it, just some dead fish and sickly live ones. I used pimafix and melafix in combination, and within 1 and a half weeks fish had no visible symptoms. They were still slightly contagious, other fish they were put in with were slightly ill for a few days, but pimafix worked on that too! Fungus is very hard to get rid of, but this is your best bet."

Pimafix
Date: March 19, 2006
"I bought Pimafix because my goldfish, Bruce, had a fungal growth on his top dorsal fin the size of a small glass bead, and he's a pretty small fish. I put the medication in the tank and within 30 min., the fungus was the size of a needle head! He is looking so much better than he did! I would recommend it to anyone, including people with reef aquariums or sensitive fish! And its all natural, you cant go wrong with an all natural product!"
