10% water changes daily while the treatment is going on(7-9 days) to keep things safe. If this country is willing to take the risk of electing a socialist, then I am willing to put this in my tank. after all....if they start taking my money and sending it to people who dont work, then I will not have tanks anymore anyway,.
It also works a little slower than copper, but reports say it does work
This is what I mean. One person has read reports of it working in 7-9 days and another says it takes longer than copper, which takes three weeks to work. Which is it?

Beth, I have no plans to run experiments on my DT. When I have the chance, I will try Quinine Sulfate in a QT, in a controlled environment, without any inverts. This way I can first see if it will work or not.
I think that it is a good idea, if you are going to experiment with this medication, to do it this way. An experiment in a well established quarantine tank is certainly the way to go if you are going to try. Trying out medications that you know very little about in your display tank is just not a good idea. Especially when there are conflicting stories about how effective the medication is and what it will or will not effect.
