What is the difference between Virkon^® Aquatic and Virkon-S?  Virkon^® Aquatic was first made available in the USA in May of 2007 and it is specifically designed for use in fish culture while Virkon-S is designed for use in the production of poultry, swine, and other types of agriculture.  Virkon® Aquatic does not contain an indicator dye or perfume as found in Virkon-S.  The dye and perfume have been removed to make the product more suitable for use around fish and other aquatic life.  Virkon^® Aquatic has a formulation based on the same active ingredients as Virkon-S but with inert ingredients that are designed for use in aquatic applications.  There are also important EPA labeling differences between Virkon^®Aquatic and Virkon-S.  The EPA approved label for Virkon^® Aquatic contains expanded aquaculture claims and applications and is approved for use in aquaculture.  Virkon-S is no longer recommended for use in aquaculture and its label will no longer carry EPA approval for aquaculture claims.
