Any tips for dealing with BJD?

I also recommend cirpo treatments, I have been successful with it myself. I have followed the 0.025mg per liter dosage x 5 days at night. No ill effects. make sure your UV and skimmer are off
I saw online somewhere that it suggested 0.125 mg/L?

Dissolve a 500mg pill (smashing it up helps a lot) in 50mL of RODI or distilled water. That makes a 10mg/mL solution.

Take your tank volume times 3.785 to determine the number of Liters, then divide by 10, then multiply by .125. So for a 100g tank...

100 x 3.785 = 378.5 / 10 = 37.85 x .125 = 4.37

So your "standard" dose would be about 4.4mL. I say "standard" because last time I did it, I did twice that. Than from Tidal Gardens said that he's done up to 5x that dosage without issues.

The standard is dose three times total, every other night. Also keep your cipro solution in the fridge until you're done dosing.
 
I tried to purchase Cipro from Chewy, but they called me and told me that they wanted a prescription from my vet. Does anybody know if they changed their policy recently?
