Baytril Enrofloxacin Injection For Koi

Baytril: (Enrofloxacin) Injectible from Bayer Labs, is a 2.27% solution. I give @ 0.1 cc per 6 inches of fish, daily for three injections, then EOD for 2 more injections. Total injections, a maximum of 5.

Recommended dose, (I. ictaluri) is 14mg per kg.

I give the drug Intraperitoneally, with a 25 G needle on a tuberculin syringe.

Be careful injecting gravid (egg laden) females. The antibiotics will simply go into the egg mass and will not get diffusion throughout the body where needed! Better in those to inject IM (Intra Muscularly)
