Re: Metronidazole

Edison,
I hope the information below will be of help to you.  I 'pasted' the
references from my file that already had been issued on this list.
Metronidazole
Use at 250 mg/10 gallons of water8 or 7 mg/liter1. Three administrations
every other day, with a 20% water change before each dose is given.
Pre-dissolve the compound in a cup of aquarium water, and then pour it in
the aquarium.
(extract from the site below)
Dionigi has a excellent article on most of the health problems we encounter
titled "Symptomatic treatment
of common Discus diseases" which can be found at
http://aquaworldnet.com/awmag/symtreaten.shtml
,http://aquaworldnet.com/awmag/symtreaten1.shtml and
http://aquaworldnet.com/awmag/symtreaten2.shtml. The last part contains
details of the use of flubenol as a treatment.
Regards,
Helen
