Coral & Fish Medicines for Emergencies

[fandaga]

What fish and coral medicines do be people keep on hand in case of emergencies? Some of the antibiotics are becoming increasingly difficult to source without a prescription. It’s frustrating to wait up to a week to get some treatments when there’s often a narrow window to act if diseases show up.

That’s a nice list for fish treatment, thanks!

Im actually trying to get cipro at the moment for BJD. Not sure if any recommendations for STN or RTN.

As far as coral medications, a good coral dip, peroxide is really all you need. Most coral issues are going to be pest related. I've never dealt with stn or rtn so hopefully someone with more experience will chime in :)
