Liptocitro MMM is a specific nutraceutical and phytobiotic for external parasites (gill and skin) such as Trematoda, Monogenea and Protozoa that optimizes response and control of Sparicotyle chrysophrii and related parasites, as well as protozoa parasites such as Cryptocaryon irritans, Trichodina spp.
External parasites can be very harmful, especially during risk periods of high temperatures. They can induce severe appetite loss and even outbreaks of other opportunistic bacterial infections taking advantage of fish weakening, finding favourable conditions for internal and external tissue colonization. All this can cause stress to fish leading to important mortalities.
Nutraceuticals and phytobiotics can help the animal to improve daily gain weight (DGW) and mortality rates.
Among other advantages, Liptocitro MMM can stop the use of chemical baths (formalin). Continuous use reduces other parasite infections (Enteromyxum leei), improves feed intake during cold water periods, interrupts parasite life cycle growing in the host (as seen with juveniles in different studies and experiments done).
