chloroquine phosphate

Hello everyone, In my previous post, I have been battling what appeared to be ich, but after some progression of the disease, I came to the conclusion that it was velvet. I have been treating the DT with H202, which has slowed down the progression of losses but has not completely eliminated...

I can't find chloroquine phosphate where I am. Can only find chloroquine biphosphate / diphosphate by Bayer, sold as a human medication, in 250 mg capsules. Is it gonna work the same way as chloroquine phosphate? Is the dosage gonna be the same? Thanks a lot!

I have a couple blue hippo tangs and cleaner wrasse currently in QT with 60mg/gal CP. I know these fish are known not to tolerate CP well, but I have had success when titrating the dose and ensuring they are eating before beginning treatment. The larger blue hippo tang showed signs of ich, but...

So I have a filefish with two little white dots on a fin. They've been there a while and haven't changed. I don't know that it's ich. Long story short, I posted about the issue on this forum and I decided to take every fish out of my display system and put them in quarantine. I have two...

Does anyone know where I can get a prescription for chloroquine phosphate in or around MD, DE, VA? The link to vets that perscribe it doesn’t work and so far in my own search I have been directed to the National Aquarium... Copper treatment with cupramine has not been kind to my fish, even with...

I am on day 3 of CP QT and worrying about ammonia. Fish are looking and acting fine, but I am seeing debris on the bottom. Red Sea Ammonia test kit is reading .4, after adding Prime the reading is still .4. Is there an accurate way to test ammonia with CP present? Did the Prime take down...

I got a chloroquine phosphate script filled at a regular pharmacy, not a vet pharmacy, so was dispensed CP pills, not powder. It didn't even occur to me until I got home to question whether or not the fillers added to make pills stick together are inert for reef fish & are safe to use? I need...

The Blue Regal stopped eating and some of the other fish slowed down too. The Regal's activity level also decreased. After the 3rd transfer, I didn't redose anymore CP. I noticed after about 10 hours he started to become more active. Regal's are very weird fishes anyway, so you really need to...

So now I'm changing my game plan on most new arrivals. I've been dosing CP (40mg) during TTM coupled with Prazipro. I feel it's about the safest route to go considering that nearly all fish I've seen lately have a Parasite, Flukes, Bacterial infection, Viral infection, etc, etc. We know that...
