At Insidereef, Metroplex is a key part of our quarantine process for both saltwater and freshwater fish, serving as our first line of defense against parasitic, and bacterial. We rely on this powerful medication to treat ailments like cryptocaryon (marine ich), hexamita, and other internal parasites, ensuring that new arrivals are healthy before entering our main systems. Metroplex is especially effective because it can be absorbed through the skin and gills or mixed with food for targeted internal treatment. By using it proactively in quarantine, we help prevent the spread of disease and maintain the overall health of our fish.
