"First aid kit"

[Juan27]

After my tank wipe out on Saturday I've decided to complete my QT.
What medicines do you guys keep on you all the time?
I want to build up a sort of Fish first aid kit for the QT and Hospital, so if something goes wrong I can act immediately.

This is something I was thinking about as well. Would be good to know.

I would imagine something like cuprazine or copramine will be in the list together with a copper test kit.

 

[Dexter]

Maybe paraguard, or if you want to hypo salinity water and salt on tap to do a quick transfer

 

[Juan27]

So far I have on my list for Wednesday:
PraziPro
Cupramine
Cuprazorb
Paraguard
Ammonia test strip
Copper test kit
Some Carbon

check Riaans bucket method thread aswell. handy for whitespot.

The bucket method is not the same as quarantine.
Bucket method for 10 days, then quarantine for 6 weeks

Prime to bind ammonia
Formalin for brookynella

 

[Juan27]

Where does one find 37% formalin solution though?

There are a couple of threads on the forum about where to get Formalin or where to get it in a different form, you're going to have to search though, can't remember what they were about.

 

[Juan27]

No one?

For the period the fish are in the bucket, I add nothing. Although it would be an ideal time due to the small water volume. downside is that you need to be very careful with your measurements.
