Boyd Vitachem (Freshwater Formula) is a long-trusted liquid multivitamin supplement for freshwater fish — a concentrated blend of over 30 naturally-occurring vitamins and extracts bonded with amino acids, with an especially high level of vitamin C. Used regularly, it supports overall vitality, coloration, strong growth, and a healthy immune response, and many keepers reach for it to support fin regeneration and to condition fish for breeding.
What It Is — and Isn't: We'll be clear: Vitachem is a nutritional supplement, not a medication. It doesn't cure disease — it strengthens fish through good nutrition, which helps them resist illness and recover. It's a great everyday wellness addition (and a useful pick-me-up for new or stressed arrivals), but a sick fish with an active infection still needs proper treatment, not just vitamins.
It's most effective soaked into food, where the fish actually eat the nutrients, though it can also be dosed straight into the water — handy for fish that aren't eating well. It's safe for community tanks, including with shrimp and snails.
How to Use: Shake well. A common routine is several drops onto dry, frozen, or live food before feeding (about 5 times a week), and/or roughly 1 drop per gallon dosed into the water about once a week. Adjust to your tank and refrigerate after opening for longest life.
