General Information
Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate is a unique, natural remedy proven effective against bacterial dropsy, fungus and ulcers in fish. Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate is an immune-enhancing stimulant that reduces bacterial and fungal infections in fish showing symptoms such as: Fin and tail rot, ulcers, bulging eyes (exophthalmia), milky skin, raised scales, mouth rot/fungus and dropsy (ascites). Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate will help boost the natural immune system of the fish with no risk of building up future resistance, as can occur when antibiotics are used.

Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate will help to drive pathogenic bacteria off the fish and, without a host, ultimately results in the death of the bacteria. Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate is effective in reducing bacterial infections as well as ulcers and wounds, which often occur on koi. Regular antibiotics may kill non-resistant bacteria, but will not heal ulcers and will leave an open wound or ulcer sensitive to reinfection. Even with deep ulcers, and in a surprisingly short time span, Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate additionally stimulates and accelerates regeneration of damaged tissue until no trace of the wound remains. So even if an antibiotic treatment is used, you should also use Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate to minimize reinfection.

Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate is made from plant and herbal extracts and environmentally friendly. Microbe-Lift Parazoryne Concentrate is harmless to all nitrifying filter bacteria and aquatic plants. Microbe-Lift Sabbactisun Concentrate can be used directly in any pond and is safe for all life in and around it. It is also a great aide to use when acclimating fish to a new environment.

Stress Reducers

The most common cause of fish stress is poor water quality. Fish can also stress due to sudden changes in pH or temperature, breaks in their routine, and a host of other causes. Learn what you can do to reduce stress in your pond fish.

pH and Koi Health

pH swings are very dangerous, as they interfere with basic body functions, leaving fish vulnerable to stress and disease. By educating yourself in the basics of water chemistry, you can help prevent disease and improve the health of your pond fish.

Preventive Maintenance

Maintaining a healthy pond depends on preserving a stable environment. If your aquatic life is not as healthy as you like, adding vitamins or minerals may help. Learn what different vitamins do for fish and plant health.
