Started using NFG for Copperband Butterflies and other slab sided shaped fish like angels and tangs. Works really well on those "red sores" that are all too common on CBs. It's also used somewhat widely in the industry for treating fish after shipping for a multitude of maladies. Here's a link with some great information and purchasing as well. http://www.americanaquariumproducts.com/AquariumMedication2.html#nitro
