You have to go to a vet and have it prescribed for you.

too bad I don't have a dog. Can I still get some?

 

[Erick]

Yea, I think if you tell them what you need it for, it can still be prescribed for coral.

I might have a tablet. I think a tablet can dose about 300g tank. How big of a tank do you need to dose?

 

[bluetang_2000]

xinumaster, I have about 120g if I move all the frags back from the frag tank and drain that one. thanks for the help

 

[xinumaster]

okay! pm me if you want to pick it up.

A vet can not prescribe sight unseen so it's doubtful the script would say "for coral" on it Usually it states "for dog".

Go to Reefs.org and print off the thread posting from Dustin Dortan. Bring that print out to the Vet, it's worked for others.

Thanks Tony

I brought in a small frag with some RBs on it and my vet was very interested in seeing to it that I kill them

 

[bluetang_2000]

anyone tried to have this prescribed through a vet in san francisco/peninsula? Might be easier if he/she already knows about the RBs. Thanks for all the suggestions/tips.

I know it's on the few paid forums Vets use for research, my sister (DVM) uploaded it all right after Dustin posted it.

It also helps to have registered animals at your local vet, mine is my neighbor and a very good friend (actually it's a husband and wife that are both vets), so that really helps. Shoot I even get stitched up or have x-rays when I need them
