I see from time to time people reply to use Kanamycin, but no one ever gives dosage directions. When you look on the internet there doesn't seem to be a consensus on instructions. So what is recommended? Thanks

The dosage for my packet of kanamycin from MVP aquatics is 1/4 tsp per 20 gallons. However, I don't know the if it applies in general for every brand of kanamycin medicine.

50-100 mg/L kanamycin

Kanaplex is 31.7% kanamycin

50 mg/L is 6 mg Kanaplex per 10 gal
