    Question Formalin treatment - everyday or every other day?

    Should formalin treatment happen 5 times in 5 days, or 5 times in 10 days?

    I'm a bit confused by the following. Does this second day after treatment mean treat day 1, wait and monitor on day 2, and treat again on day 3, etc... or treat on day 1, treat on day 2, etc?

    15. On the second day after treatment, repeat the process starting with 1. and using fresh/new treatment bath. This will be the second treatment.
    16. On the second day after this second treatment, treat fish again, starting at 1.


    Thanks!

    Ahh, I found a web archive of the original link (marine fish saltwater aquarium tank at marineaquariumadvice.com) at Formaldehyde: Friend or Foe - Treating Saltwater Fish Diseases

    which states every other day. Thanks!
