I had one but it couldn't get into the rack well enough and started starving so i sold it. Now i can't find another one for a reasonable price locally. You wouldn't, by any chance be in the central Texas area would you?
Nah I’m in Vegas.. sorry! He’s a pig too lol

Only crustaceans are dwarf hermits. I can move them out if needed. And i plan on starting an a micro dose and increasing from there. Do you think it would be safe/ effective

I do not know.

I ran a test on an unfortunate blue leg almost immediately after your last response and it's still doing good. I ended up deciding on a diluted spot treating, and removed the rest of the hermits in case that one was a fluke. Ive had great results so far.

Hermits survive a lot of medications. I had them survive some crazy stuff from chloroquine phosphate to copper. Accidentally scooped them up when moving some sand over. I remember a post on here where one survived 30 days in Cupermine at 0.5, it was in the overflow unknown.

Just to clarify, I never tried the med you are using. It just wouldn’t surprise me if they came out unfazed.
