There is a "lock jaw disease" but I believe it's a FW thing. In SW fish, "lock jaw" is usually caused by food or a foreign object stuck inside the mouth. A viral growth such as Lympho, or disease/infection inside the mouth is also possible. :(

There's a lot of wiggle room when it comes to dosing antibiotics, so long as never overdose.

Kanamycin Sulfate: 500-750 mg per 20 gallons

Nitrofurazone: 250 mg per 10 gallons

Metronidazole: 250-500 mg per 20 gallons

You can dose every 24 hrs (for severe infections), or do it every 48 hrs (for moderate infections). Just make sure you do the 25% WC before each new round of treatment because I am unsure what percentage of active ingredient you are using. Over here, Furan-2, Kanaplex and Metroplex are so watered down that the WC becomes optional. :D
Hi, can i combine this dose with cupramine?
