TETRA MAX

For luminous and hepatopancreatic disease — binds bacterial toxins

Treat intestinal hemorrhage caused by Aeromonas, Pseudomonas in fish; treat luminescence caused by Vibrio in shrimp. Broad-spectrum antibiotic with 20% Oxytetracycline; bacteriostatic by blocking bacterial protein synthesis, with a special excipient that binds toxins produced by bacteria. Use as labelled or as directed by a veterinarian.

Shrimp losses after rain: the right response

Situation · Cause · Mechanism · Indications · Dosage · Mixing
01 — After heavy rain

Heavy rain — stressed shrimp, opportunistic bacteria

  1. 1

    Sudden pond change

    pH, salinity, alkalinity and temperature drop fast; the pond stratifies and the bottom runs low on oxygen.

  2. 2

    Stressed, weak shrimp

    Shrimp eat less and their resistance drops after the change.

  3. 3

    Opportunistic bacteria

    Vibrio spp. multiply when shrimp are weak and the pond is rich in organic matter.

  4. 4

    Shrimp losses

    Shrimp stop eating and die at the bottom — find the real cause before medicating.

Find the cause before medicating

  1. Measure the pondpH, alkalinity, salinity, dissolved oxygen
  2. Check the shrimpHepatopancreas, gut, luminous signs
  3. Ask a technician or vetConfirm whether it is a bacterial infection
  4. Medicate as indicatedRight dose, full course
02 — Label indications

For shrimp, fish and nursery ponds

  • Shrimp

    Hepatopancreatic and luminous disease caused by Vibrio spp.

    Broad-spectrum antibiotic; a special excipient binds toxins produced by Vibrio spp. 3 – 5 g/kg feed for 5 – 7 days.

  • Fish

    Intestinal hemorrhage caused by Aeromonas liquefaciens and Pseudomonas spp.

    100 g per 260 – 360 kg of fish or 100 g per 15 – 20 kg of feed, for 5 – 10 days in a row.

  • Nursery

    Steadier fry, lower infection risk

    1 kg/1,000 m³ of water, applied before stocking and every 2 weeks during the nursery phase.

03 — Bacteriostatic action

Oxytetracycline stops bacteria multiplying

Oxytetracycline is a tetracycline, a broad-spectrum antibiotic active against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. It diffuses through the bacterial cell membrane, binds the ribosome and blocks protein synthesis — the bacteria stop growing and multiplying (bacteriostatic), letting the animal’s own defences clear the infection.

From feed to the bacterium

  1. Mixed into feedEaten into the gut
  2. Enters the bacteriumDiffuses through the membrane
  3. Binds the ribosomeBlocks protein synthesis
  4. Bacteria stop multiplyingBacteriostatic
  1. 01

    Broad spectrum

    Active against both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria.

  2. 02

    Bacteriostatic

    Blocks protein synthesis so bacteria stop growing and multiplying.

  3. 03

    Toxin binding

    A special excipient binds toxins produced by bacteria.

  4. 04

    In-feed powder

    Mixed into feed and coated — the drug reaches the gut.

04 — Dosage

Dosage by species

As labelled.
  • Shrimp — bacterial infection3 – 5 g / kg of feedFeed for 5 – 7 days
  • Fish — intestinal hemorrhage100 g / 15 – 20 kg of feedOr 100 g per 260 – 360 kg of fish; 5 – 10 days in a row
  • Nursery ponds1 kg / 1,000 m³ of waterBefore stocking, then every 2 weeks

How to mix into feed

  1. 1Dissolve in clean waterUse just enough clean water.
  2. 2Mix into the feedCoat the pellets evenly.
  3. 3CoatSeal with a suitable binder so the drug stays on the feed.
  4. 4Dry for 20 minutesKeep out of direct sunlight, then feed.

Dosage may vary with actual pond conditions and the level of infection. Seal the bag right after use if not finished.

Previous pageDetailed article

TETRA MAX is a broad-spectrum antibiotic containing Oxytetracycline, specifically used in aquaculture, effectively treating bacterial diseases in shrimp and fish.

For shrimp:

  • Broad-spectrum antibiotic, treats hepatopancreatic diseases and luminous vibriosis caused by Vibrio spp in shrimp. Combined with special excipients to help absorb toxins caused by Vibrio spp.
  • Indicated for treatment in cases of bacterial infection: 3 - 5 g/kg feed, for 5 - 7 days.
  • Dilute the product with sufficient clean water, mix thoroughly with feed, and coat with a suitable binder. Dry for 20 minutes before feeding shrimp, but avoid direct sunlight exposure.
  • Use in nursery ponds/tanks: 1 kg/1,000 m³ of water broadcast before stocking and every 2 weeks during the nursery period to stabilize survival rate and limit disease infection. Dilute the product with water and broadcast directly into the pond or nursery tank.

For fish: 100 g of medicine for 260 - 360 kg of fish or 100 g of medicine/15 - 20 kg of feed. Treat continuously for 5 - 10 days.

Note:

  • Dosage may vary depending on actual conditions and the severity of disease in the pond.
  • Seal the packaging immediately after use if the product has not been fully consumed.

Withdrawal period: Discontinue use 4 weeks before harvest.
