Potassium Permanganate

What It's Good At:
Potassium Permanganate (KMnO4) kills 99.9% of exposed pathogenic bacteria, kills most ciliate parasites, most fluke parasitisms, fungal infections and potassium permanganate oxidizes organics in the water, leaving it cleaner and fresher than before treatment.

Note: You will get explicit written recommendations and guidelines on the proper use of Potassium permanganate with every order. Here are some guidelines:
For flukes you should treat every third or fourth day for three or four treatments.
For ciliate parasites you should treat every day for five treatments.

Background:
Powerful oxidizer clears many ciliated protozoans, flukes, fungi and bacterial infections. Dosage and interval are critical. Use caution and dose carefully, avoid contact with skin, eyes or mucous membranes. Bypass filter and increase aeration and circulation. Can be neutralized with dechlorinator or hydrogen peroxide. Full details with product.

You should probably know:
The presence of large amounts of organic debris, uneaten food, dead fish, leaves, dead plants will cause the potassium to spend it's energy on oxidizing the organics, not on the parasites or ulcers.
The presence of dechlorinator in the water will inactivate the treatment. (Latency 2 days)
The presence of Hydrogen peroxide will inactivate treatment. (Latency 3 days)
Potassium can kill a lot of algae, increasing oxygen demand, especially in warm water over eighty degrees.

Important: Potassium permanganate cannot legally ship by way of UPS since September 11th! This product will be shipped priority and will usually arrive in 3 days. There are no exceptions!

Pros
There's hardly anything with such a broad spectrum and this can be used in extremely cold water.

Cons
If carelessly overdosed, it will kill your fish. It also kills 99.9% of exposed beneficial bacteria so you're advised to avoid letting it pass through your filter.

Will PP hurt mosquito fish? And I have another type minnow in my pond that I inherited via a nearby creek when Hurrican Ivan came through Atlanta. I have no clue what type of minnow it is, but it came from a creek in Atlanta. Thank you.
