As far as I can tell fish antibiotics are no longer available OTC. The FDA swooped in and stopped their sale.
oh bummer! well, I guess medicinal plants are all that’s left
thx for the update
In a quick search, I found some online pharmacies that sell fish antibiotics. Back when I was first trying to get some, it was always a little flaky. Seems to still be the same with some not selling them, requiring prescriptions, the places that sell them seem to come and go.
I remember the last time there was a rumor that they had halted the sale of antibiotics. I’m sure they want to. But that would completely destroy the home fish hobby. Who’s going to take their fish to a vet? Plus they seem to need antibiotics quite often. I imagine the place is selling them are looked into and that might be why they change whether they sell them or not, or new ones pop up only to disappear shortly after.
Here’s what I found today using duckduckgo, this was just the first page so there’s more. About half the ones that showed up no longer sold them or the domain was even for sale.

Our feral government in sync with One Worlders is dedicated to stomping out anything that gives us the the slightest bit of freedom and independence.
That would explain not only a war on Fish Antibiotics (if true) but the latest biased idea floated that home gardening is bad because of the carbon footprint.
