Fish Health and Pond Disease Treatments

Fish and pond treatments can be applied directly to the pond water

Water Garden supply a range of medication-based disease treatments for ornamental fish. These fish disease treatments will combat a wide range of fish diseases from bacterial and fungal infections, to parasitic infestation. The Oase AquaMed range has been designed for direct pond water application, so as to minimise stress on your fish. 

Alongside these treatments, Water Garden also supply a range products to prevent and deter pond predators such as herons and cats from killing or injuring your pond fish.

Healthy fish require healthy pond water quality

For pond or lake water problems, tests & solutions, see our Water Treatments department for a wide selection of specific products.


Guidelines for use: We recommend that you switch off your Ultraviolet clarifier, and stop feeding your fish during any periods of fish disease treatment, and when treating Bacterial / Fungal infection, feeding should only begin at least a week after the last treatment, and food should be introduced little-by-little, gradually increasing to regular feeding over a period of around 4 weeks.

Please note that the root cause of many fish health problems is poor pond water quality, and pathogens and parasites thrive in these conditions as fish are stressed, and therefore vulnerable to infection. We recommend that if you are experiencing fish health issues, that you perform tests on the pond water parameters using one of our Water Test Kits before administering any fish disease treatment, to establish whether poor water quality may be the fundamental problem.
