Anyone know how many mg's of milbemycin oxime the tablets doc has contain?

The recommended treatment dosage per gal?

All of your info is here my friend.

If you don't have a scale.
I dissolved a ground tablet in 380ml of water. Then I know each 1ml will treat 1 gallon and dose accordingly.

skatezen,

Thanks for the link! Very informative.

Tablets come in less than 23 mg also. But the tablets doc has are probably the 23 mg ones then.

 

[skatezen]

Those are the ones he has. I bought some from him.

Forgot to add, if you mix it in RODI then just put the unused portion in the freezer, and use at a later date. Just make sure you thaw it completely and give it a good shake before you dose.

Very good to know! Thanks again.

I'm going to be buying a pack or two from Doc when he gets back from vacation.

it can also take your shrimps down for the count. :lobster: that's a lobster, but close enough.

definately!! i left my pistol shrimp and fire shrimp in the tank while treating (i couldn't catch them and would have had to take the tank apart to get them out). i got them out rather easily a few hours later as they seemed very lethargic, the fire shrimp was actually motionless on it's back for a while in the quarantine tank ( i think couple more hours and it would have been a goner). everyone survived and tank is rid of red bugs.
