Robert I've used the red slime remover also in the past. Would like to know what the problem is with this batch, if you're going to follow up on why this batch went sour let us know.
Sorry about the loss of your fish.

Sorry to hear your losses. It must have been aweful to watch that before your eyes, and not been able to do anything about it, knowing it wasn't your fault.

The same folks that are working at the cat and dog food manufacturers must be working in the fish realm too. What happened to the "drugs don't work" policy and Quality Control? Are these mishaps really acceptable?? What if it happened in human food/goods? I would think people would not be taking it as lightly. I hate that this has been happening in pet goods.

Again, sorry for your losses.

Robert, I am so sorry to hear that!! Let us know if you find out anything, we just used red slime remover and had some stressed corals, lost 2 sps but we dont know if this could have been the cause or not.
I am so sorry, that really sucks.

Robert,

Sorry to hear about your losses. Were any of your corals affected? Also, if you really want some red slime remover, I have some that I used twice with no ill effects. I will bring it to the meeting.
