How to use forma-green

[ConnorG]

I have a clown fish with brook and my lfs only has forma-green so I picked some up and have been doing fresh water dips ever since I diagnosed it as brook. And it has helped but my question is how do I use forma-green as a dip?

What's the concentration of formalin and malachite green in the product? Their website doesn't list it.

It doesn't say in the bottle but it says to use one drop per every gallon if aquarium water. So for the dip I used 2 drops for one gallon cuz I thought it needed to be stronger.

Call them and ask. They have always been very helpful on the phone with me.

Yes! Company tech-support is a very underutilized asset for us. (IMO). If a company doesn't have good tech support, I don't buy their stuff. Our forum is a great place to share opinions and experiences; but sometimes, you need solid facts.

I use rid ich + at 10x the dose for dips. I don't think 2x is going to do anything as a dip. But I also don't want to tell you to use this product at 10x if I don't know the concentrations.

Well I called on Friday 3 times, no answer. And I also emailed as well and still no reply.
