thier has been a few posts on chemicals and thier useage and recommendations.

chemicals can be very nasty and unless you know how to read them or understand what you are doing.

YOU MUST READ THE LABEL.

although this seems sensible it is because the LABEL IS A BINDING LEGAL DOCUMENT.

learn about your labels and chemicals will be your friends if you don't you are holding your fish and your own life in your hands

for example; Vitamin C will kill you quicker in a pure form than the roundup you use in your garden will.

this website will explain some more about vet/farm chemicals and is a good read

Valid point made Ryan.

I think some of us have been guilty at one stage or another when playing with meds.

killing your discus with kindness happens quite abit.

somtimes a good water change with normal rock salts can be even more effective then going straight for the chem lab stuff

more important we are recommending and adviseing.

some products we use for certain treatments, may be ilegal to use it that format or use

my ponit is be careful and READ THE LABEL THIS IS A BINDING CONTRACT THAT YOU AGREE TO UPON USE.

did anyone realise that you are held to a legal contract when useing "spray and wipe"?
