If you are treating solely with ABX I'd recommend NFG, if you need antibiotics during copper I'd use the trifecta or spectrogram.

It contains antibiotics + methalyne blue. So it's best not to be combined with copper, because of the methalyne blue.

Good choice, I love NFG. It has saved so many fish that were in trouble!

NFG also seems to work faster than the trifecta IMO.
Especially on those red sores that pop up on butterflies.

I just bought a jar of this from East Coast Ranchu online and (never have used it previously.) You are right - not inexpensive!
Having never used this before - does it really give the water a slight green cast? Interesting that they call it Nitrofuracin Green - but it has Meth Blue ( that used to cause a deep blue cast in the water years ago?)
