Algae Problem

[tqfan]

hi, i know it's been a month since i was last asking about this, but we have finally been to a vet...

i have cleaned the tank a couple of times, to get rid of most of the BGA, but of course, that won't get rid, and it has come back again, although not as bad yet.

i got my dad to ask about the erythromycin, and the vet has it/can get it (bargain at £2.50, lol) but he wants to know the correct dose for my tank, and also what form (tablet, powder, liquid) would be best, he thinks liquid form would be best.

i had said this to my dad, that i would assume most vets wouldn't deal in aquatics, or at least not every day, like they do cats and dogs!

so yeah, what is the usual dose? rendog mentioned he doubled up on the dose, but what is it?! also, if i tell the vet maracyn, will he know what that is/have it? is that what other vets give out?

thanks again

There isnt just one strength or brand of erythmocyin, so the manafacturers reccomendations vary.

Liquid or tablets are best. If using tablets, some people cut themm up and dot around the substarte,
