Man I have been follwing this thread from the beginning and am in utter amazement! Recently I tried to rescue an ailing gigantea using similar methods but was unable to obtain a sufficient amount of Baytril. I was able to retrieve a tiny amont from a friend who had some left over from when he had to treat some of his birds. I used this in the initial treatment which yielded similar results to what both of you have documented. However, I was unable to retreat the specimen after the first water change and the anemone recessed and eventually passed.
My question is two fold;
1. Is there more commonly available antibiotics that may produce similar results? and
2. How does someone obtain baytril from a veterenarian or other source without first injecting their dog or cat with a terrible bacterial infection? I called 5 vet offices and none of them would sell me the product despite a lengthy and detailed explanation of what I was using it for.
