Is this the same stuff I use in my fish tank to cure ick?

LOL! I have childhood memories of trying to cure ick in my Mollies and Swordtails with methylene blue.
Lost a lot of Mollies, IIRC ;-)

It is a coloring dye used to stain micro-organisms on laboratory slides.
Very poisonous.

Believe so.
I was working in a really crappy part of Africa, possibly got malaria (got sick, not sure what), and they used this to knock it out, along with some other drugs.
Turns your pee blue and the whites of your eyes blue.
I looked like an extra from “Dune.”

Hey, I knew it sounded familiar for some reason.
