In Response To: Re: my location (Dr. Momfish)

"Eh," eh? I'm originally from the Northwestern portion of Washington State. I picked up the "eh" at an early age, being that we had so many visitors from Canada. :-) ...moved to Texas eight months ago.

I'm curious to see which government will be first to ban the aforementioned fish meds? Makes sense that once one does, the others should very soon follow. However, I've heard such talk for quite some time now with no action. So, who knows?

In any event, shouldn't bother this old fart. The last time I had ich in my tanks was over ten years ago when I purchased a trio of 1" Clown Loaches. I eventually cured that outbreak with increased temp (and the rest of my voodo ich formula).

The next time it happens, I will do the same. I especially like hearing about this type of product because I'd like another option for cooler water species besides what is currently available. I also like the "natural" aspect of this product idea. I never did like working around chemicals early on in the hobby, or diatomaceous earth for that matter (another possible carcinogen).
