I just want to preface this post by saying that I have basically zero math education beyond high school, which I struggled immensely with and barely passed, so please forgive my stupidity.
I have a valentini puffer who needs his teeth trimmed. I’ve known this for a while now and have been putting it off, but he’s starting to get noticeably skinny and sleeps more than he used to. I purchased some Tricaine MS-222 to tranquilize him and trim his teeth, but I’m having a hard time figuring out the correct dosage. I have found several helpful articles on the subject but am still unsure and would appreciate some input from the more mathematically inclined members here before I proceed because I am very nervous about this whole procedure. I plan on using a 1 gallon container to anesthetize the fish in, so how much MS-222 do I need to use to achieve a 100 ppm concentration? Thanks in advance.
