Overall Rating: | Potassium Permanganate is a useful fish disease treatment; acting against a range of protozoan parasites including Trichodina, Costia and Chilodonella.
In addition to being an effective anti-parasite treatment, Potassium Permanganate can also assist with bacterial gill disease and bacterial disease such as skin ulcers. It will also oxidize dissolved organic matter, reducing the biological oxygen demand and improving water quality and clarity.
All sounds too good to be true! |

Product ReviewsOverall Rating: James Luciani (Hobbyist) on Saturday 01 December, 2012 Product Rating: Review: I have used this product for two years. at lower doses this product cleaned my pond up great. Used it for 5 days and my WATER was so clear and even smelled so good, really I saw my koi flurishing and there colors where more vibrant I could tell that they where very happy, and so was I.please know your water volume,have a experienced person show you first. I do this once a year. Won't be without it.
Cat Jenkins (Koi Health Professional) on Tuesday 02 November, 2010 Product Rating: Review: I frequently use this as a clean up on many of my clients ponds. However I never suggest this product be used by an inexperienced hobbyist. It can be very dangerous and higher levels and it can be dangerous to the biological process of the pond. However at very low doses it can be safe and effective for removing dissolved organics from the water.
Pamela Brewer (Hobbyist) on Tuesday 19 October, 2010 Product Rating: Review: on a well cycled pond it can be great at low doses to clean the pond water. But this product should not be listed under parasite treatments because its very hard to use this stuff to kill parasites. You have to use it at high levels that will kill your filter and is dangerous for the koi in order to kill parasites. There are much safer parasite treatments out there. But to "clean" up the water with a low dose, its very safe and easy to use. I would never recommend a high dose of PP to anybody other then a professional. 3 stars only because its listed under parasite treatments and it shouldn't be used for that.
Darrell Goeken (Hobbyist) on Saturday 24 January, 2009 Product Rating: Review: I use this in low doses to clean my pond occassionally and to clean filter media, but as others have stated it must be used with extreme care. And it can be very harmful if proper care is not taken. Safety both personal and for your fish is a must.
Cindy Badder (Hobbyist) on Monday 05 January, 2009 Product Rating: Review: Unless you understand completely, don't touch this one. Know why you are using it and recheck again.
If you do, use googles and gloves, IT WILL BLIND YOU! Measure carefully and mix and mix and mix, add slowly. Have peroxide ready to neutralize if the fish are struggling.
Joe Hatfield Jr (Hobbyist) on Thursday 28 August, 2008 Product Rating: Review: PP is my med of choice for killing bad bugs. I utilize with and ORP meter to cut down on time and number of treatments.
Nilesh (Hobbyist) on Sunday 17 August, 2008 Product Rating: Review: After reading about DOCS and cleanup of pond, this thing really works. Mild treatments have helped maintain low levels of DOCs in my pond. Use PP paste on ulcers when needed. and Every spring, small dose of PP to kill off any bad bacteria. Good price and product for what it is worth
Ned (Retail Dealer) on Wednesday 13 August, 2008 Product Rating: Review: A good product for cleaning up the pond, but not something to be used lightly and not for the timid. You must give it the respect it deserves. It is a powerful oxidant that will knock back the bio filter and can damage the koi's gills if over used. Not for new ponds as it can destroy the fragile bacteria. I like to use it in very mild, low dose applications of less then 1 ppm. Great for a quick clean up of the water. It is very important that you know your exact gallons and use a gram scale to weight the PP. It also requires close monitoring during the treatment and keep dechlor on hand as it will reverse the treatment instantly.
