I started giving Nemo Maracyn two but i just noticed that the expiry date on the medicine was 5th month 06 ,Crap man ,it came from PJ's pet's in Pickering Ont,Does any one know if I should keep on giving it to him until i can exchange it ? or should I discontinue treatment ? I have him in a hospital tank and he seems to be hanging ON.I fed him some frozen pea's today which he had a hardy appetite for and he also eat dried blood worm or two but he is bloated and has trouble with his balance and look's uncomfortable,Well that's it for today if some one has an Idea about any thing I would be glad to here from you ,thank's Richard .
Don't worry about the expiration date-- it only means the meds are slightly less potent (just like with human meds). They don't go "bad." You may continue to use it. I like to use baby food peas-- so much easier than the frozen ones and it is difficult to find a frozen pea without sodium (which you don't want to give him for bloat). Don't use epsom salt with the maracyn2 as it'll deactivate the meds. Keep him out of too much light as it too deactivates the m2. The bloodworms will further the constipation. Is he eating the peas? aimee
