Used this product a month ago on some finicky and ich magnet fish and had great success. So I am looking to buy locally before I order online..has anyone seen it?

does this mean that we wouldn't need to set up a QT tank for 2-3 weeks??
I played it safe and first gave the fish the 2 dips in safety stop and then added them to my quarantine tank. While in qt, none of the fish showed signs of ick or velvet and I think this product had a lot to do with it, especially since one of the fish was an Achilles tang. Kept them in qt for a month while I ran the rest of my protocol with focus, metro, prazi and general cure.

I can pick one up for you and meet you in Sylmar tonight if they bro. Just give them a call.
Thanks brother, I appreciate it but no need to go out of your way. Going to text Art and see if he carries it at his shop....maybe Steve carries it at PTF.

According to Melev's reef, Safety Stop is basically.... Formalin (Part A) and Methylene Blue (Part B). But it looks interesting, I would probably use it. Just make sure you wear eye protection and gloves.
