Mixing Insoluble Meds.
This Praziquantel powder I have is REALLY water insoluble.I add it to a small amount of water to soak food in and it stays in beads and balls.The tiny size of the vessel I use to soak the meds makes it hard to get things turgid and get that powder broken down into the water. So, here's my question, ...

Re: Praziquantel for IP's.
Ah, ok...in my minds eye I envisioned coating a chunk of octopus it usually fully consumes to slight visual satiation.Then, letting that coating soak for a good while.The instructions on the package say 1/4 tsp per 100g of food, so this is right in tune with what I pictured.This guy cave me a full c...

Praziquantel for IP's.
Have a small 2" GSP, and have acquired some Praziquantel powder from a friend and was told it rids fish of IP's.
Cam I treat my fish with this?It's out of a commercial 250g jar.If so, how much to dizolve to either inject or soak?

Re: A Few Questions.
At the sake of making new thread as I noticed junk/off topic is discouraged, I have one last question. Is there a problem with trapdoor snails, why don't I see them recommended more often? I have access to bulk mystery snails, should I just do those?I kind of wanted a quick turnaround from the trapd...

Re: A Few Questions.

Oh no my friend, this I know, I've read through your ecstatic entry on your relationship with it.I have one as well.My point is I don't have, or see the...

Re: A Few Questions.
At the sake of making another thread, I do have one last question. I, ATM , do not have a vessel big enough to do a 50% water change in, so was wondering If I could just do it with a 5 gallons out of 30 formula.Like, I'll mix up 15 gallons WORTH (in a 5 g bucket, not 15 actual gallons) of 1.006 to w...

Re: A Few Questions.
This crushed coral really takes a while to filter out/settle down.I rinsed well past when they said to pretty much stop. Meaning this package said rinse to cloudy after milky, do not over rinse. This guy is definitely an ambassador for his species and species alike though.I do want one for my 90 jus...

Re: A Few Questions.
that is a confusing post ;) plants and SW don't mix neither does the wood. I know this, thank you though.I was mentioning it as part of the setup that is getting changed out. Those plants are already back over my other tank.Just had them in there to strip out bad stuff in the water a bit when it wa...

Re: A Few Questions.
For a 40 breeder you want to mix 20 g at 1.004 and perform a 50% wc and go from there increasing by 0.002 per week until you get to your desired sg Yeah, I did it the long way, also only did 30 worth to accommodate for displacement ;) And just add the substrate now?Ok, I'll put this batch of water ...

Re: A Few Questions.
Well, my setup is one 1.5 inch "rescue" GSP, from petco.I know buying from those situations only supports their cause, but this guy needed some intervention, as I'm sure you can imagine. It is in a 40 breeder, 3 feet long, 18" wide. Good for a while for one specimen. Cleaning and addi...

I would like a little help as I do not have to much time to graze the vast bank of answers like I used to be able to.So I will ask specifics, please be patient with me as I'm sure this is all basic knowledge to you all. First question is, with the crushed coral, can I add it all at once?My PH, witho...
