Fritz Industries, Inc. is recalling 368 gallons of Fritz Aquatics Mardel Coppersafe, a veterinary treatment used to provide relief from parasites in aquatic environments. The recall was initiated because the product labels contain incorrect dosage instructions that would result in a 217% increase in the active ingredient concentration when followed. This significant overdosing could harm the aquatic life being treated. The affected products include 1-gallon and 16-ounce bottles sold in several states including Texas, Florida, and New York.
The incorrect instructions lead to a 217% increase in the active ingredient concentration, which creates a high risk of toxicity and potential death for fish and other aquatic organisms due to accidental over-medication.
