Re: [Re: sick female Notho]
In general I've been extremely unimpressed with Mardel medicines (with the
exception of their new Biospheres medicine). I generally swear by
Aquatronics (their dosages are at least correct, although I use all
antibiotics for 10days whether or not the symptoms clear earlier, and also
some aquarium pharmaceuticals medicines, but mostly swear at Mardel
products. Dunno why it's been that way for me.
The Biospheres medicine is a pair of antibacterials in a emulsion on
charged particles that actually adhere to the fish's skin through
electrostatic attraction. This has effected the fastest cure of columnaris
I've ever had, although it's having a tougher time with finrot on a
beautiful angel. I'm not hopeful for this fish :Š-(
my $0.01 (I'm not sure my advice measures up to $0.02 worth....)
