What are you trying to treat? Do you mean maracyn?I’m not sure if this was discussed yet. I purchased a box of Marex from eBay the other day. I know it was popular back in the early days of reefing but has anyone used it recently with success?

All I can find is that they "ceased operations many years ago," lol. CP does have a shelf life of like 4 years. I'm not sure what happens to it after that.I am treating ich.
No not Maracyn. Marex...
.... heard great stuff about it in articles and forum post but a lot of people stated it was discontinued many many years ago. I just purchased a pack and was wondering if anyone has used it recently to combat ich.
I am using it right now in a 40 qt. I’m on my second day. I am QTing my maroon pair, Hippo, yellow tang and Fiji devil damsel.
Lol Geez I hope that’s not the case or the Marex and I are almost the same age, lol. I’m not sure if they back at it or not. The company that manufactures it Aquatronics seems to be selling a lot of it in addition to other aquatic meds. I think they are back in business?All I can find is that they "ceased operations many years ago," lol. CP does have a shelf life of like 4 years. I'm not sure what happens to it after that.
I'm sure the efficacy goes down, but I'm not sure how much per year. The stuff you have is probably 30+ years old! If you are going to go the non prescription route (as I had to), get some new stuff from Fishman Chemical or National Fish Pharmaceutical. I successfully used it at 50mg/gal to make up for any lack in purity.
Mods, pls delete.I’ve dosed almost 2 grams in a 29g Qt and I still see ich. Should I Up the dosage?
Of 99% pure chloroquine? If so, that's 80 mg/G assuming you have 25 gal. of water in your 29G tank. That is very strong. How long has your fish been exposed to this level?
Maybe print out some supporting documentation on its use for him/her to read!Taking my cat to a new vet today. Gonna ask him for a CP script while I’m there. Fingers crossed...but hopes not up haha
