API to Discontinue GC?

[Tacticool-Reefer]

Does anyone know if the rumor is true? Stop by a LFS the other day to pick up some GC, wasn’t in stock, I asked one of the clerks and was informed that “it has been discontinued and no longer available”.

I’m sure there are better options out there but curious if it’s fact or fiction?

Went ahead and ordered from Amazon as appears like they’re the only place that has it in stock right now.

Even if they are, not a big deal since the ingredients are readily available being metronidazole and praziquantel.

And the praziquantel is pretty much insoluble in water so unless you feed it you might as well just buy metronidazole alone.

Amazon only has 10 left in stock. I can get bulk praziquantel and metronidazole, but other than Prazipro, I don't know where home aquarists will be able to get small quantities of these drugs elsewhere...

You need to express it through a fine net and make a suspension with it, then it works fine.

Jay,
Good to know!
One more thing, how fine a mesh do you recommend?
Thx!

Marine Depot has them, just ordered a couple boxes.
