Where to get Formalin?
 
I've been searching for formalin to cure Brooklynella in my clown.
Any clues where I can actually buy this stuff?

Thanks,
Ross

If you can't find any locally, Ocean Aquatics used to stock Formalin 3. However, it may be too late by that time...

Think BigAls carrys a form of formalin.

I think Petland has it...?

Good luck with Brookynella...tough to beat unless it's caught really early ime.

I can get it on the greyhound if you need it badly.

Big Als does carry formalin, I believe it is under the name Formalin3 or something like that.

Added more about:

Aqueous solutions of formaldehyde are referred to as formalin. "100%" formalin consists of a saturated solution of formaldehyde (this is about 40% by volume or 37% by mass) in water, with a small amount of stabilizer, usually methanol to limit oxidation and polymerization.
