Hi
I was reading up on discus sickness and meds and found my LFS had some for hexamitia (fish medicin is not legal to sell here as it requires prescription from a vet). Anyway, the active ingredient is '2-Amino-5-nitrothiazole' and instructions says to remove filter.
There are many other brands with same ingredient, most popular is 'esha hexamitia' but none of these says anything about removing filter.
Question is: does anyone have experience with this type of drug and the effect on filer bacteria?
