saved four of my fish
Date: June 13, 2008
"I had four of my fish come down with dropsy (3 gold barbs and a blue danio) I quarantined them and fed them only the medicine. At first they would not eat the medicine, so I would take the largest flakes of food and put the medicine on the flake and place it on the surface of the water. At first the fish would nibble and swim away but since this is all they were getting fed, they eventually ate it all and progressed to eating the medicine by itself. That was a year ago and they are the oldest fish in my tank now."

This stuff worked for me.
Date: February 15, 2008
"My Betta fish had a severe case of popeye and I really didn't think he was gonna make it, I went to petco and picked up this medicine, it worked WONDERS. Only problem was that the fish didn't actually eat it. He just swam around it and mixed it into the aquarium water. It worked for me though."

Not Eating it!
Date: February 14, 2008
"My guppies tasted it once and every feeding thereafter, they swam around the drops. Obviosly, the product can't work if the fish won't eat it. What's more, I tried to soak their regular food in the gel, but it didn't do much. I wouldn't recommend doing so since it is not mentioned in the instructions."

Not that helpful
Date: December 12, 2007
"It seemed like a good medication when I was reading it in the store. However, my Betta fish does not eat it. He ate the first one. I guess he didn't like the taste because he is not eating any more drops."
