Terry B...thought you would get a kick out of this

[itchy]

Was in a LFS today and we were discussing Hypo as a parasite treatment...The dumbas*(or is he?) said that hypo of 1.009 for more than a 2 days would cause kidney/liver failure? Now considering we all have used this method at some point now or have not experienced this i had to laugh at him.
After explaining that I myself qt as often as possible and have had no problem I could only recommend it as a treatment. Oh well not a lot to say just thought that I would bring this to your attention and see your reaction or comments.
Thanks for all the help in the past few months!!!

I thought that hypo was crazy myself (before this BB). I was in the store the other day and found a marine aquarium book on it. Its ture it really, really works.

Simm---- can you tell me the name of the book that had info about hypo. I am new and need to know step by step how to lower it safely. I did print out a thread "first time hypo" but I live in a rural area and need to get some books I can keep on hand to refer to. This chemistry stuff has me overwhelmed.

I cant remember the name. The guy at the LFS picked it up and showed me. But I will be going back and Ill look then.
