I feel your pain guys and gals, I do not live in Houston but I do live in the southwest. Velvet wiped me out and by the time I dot it figured out I lost almost all my fish. I can not believe how fast a fish can look good one day and knocking on deaths door the next. I am looking at an almost empty tank every day, but until things get better I won't risk it. Thanks for letting me rant...

FWIW

There is a product called "Copper Power" which contains chelated copper (like Coppersafe).

There is also Chloroquine phosphate - an antimalarial drug which is also useful for treating external parasites in marine fish.

No, that is incorrect. CP stands for Chloraquine Phosphate. It is not copper based.
I think I know you! Question: Is a prescription required to possess this in Texas? As far as I can tell, It is a class 2 controlled substance. If this is true, we need to be sure we are obtaining CP legally.

You need a Rx to obtain it legally as per FDA regulations.

I know some one who's Rx certified and she is a nice lady as well :rolleyes:

Again I trust only my own QT treatment.
Many stores say they do or will but if I'm not on top of it myself I don't trust it.
I think Antonio is a great guy but still will QT for myself.
In many if not all the fish that I buy isn't leaving the wholesale bag at all.
That is just another step that you skip that a fish can pick up more crap.

It is not scheduled, but does require a prescription, which I am willing to provide if needed. I think I know you too. :cool:
