List of Betta Meds

≈ D ≈ · February 21st, 2008

Thanks again Rose (I love picking your brain

). Any medication I do is never in a main tank; I use a hospital tank that doubles as my QT.

I think it's the Malachite Green that one has to be careful with scaleless fish and inverts.

Yes it is the Malachite Green and I am totally at a loss without my books. My brain is like Swiss Cheese without them. I am so used to reaching for them and they are not here. I feel like I do not have my right arm attached or something. Strange feeling and on top of that, I am tired. (and making excuses, sorry.)

I'd really recommend against any use of Malachite Green.

I know I'm new here but can I make a suggestion for the list?

A couple of months ago, my betta ended up with skin flukes and I used Hikari Prazi Pro and it was very gentle on him and it's also safe for snails as well. I always recommend this medication when people have bettas who become infected with a parasitic worm.
