Acidophilus dose in medicated gel food?

[Guldklumpen 51]

Hi all.

With the help of dnalex i finally understand the dosing of Metronidazole in gel food.

(thx for your patience dnalex)

Now i just need to know, how much Acidophilus/probiotics to use?

Can you overdose with probiotics?

When i make metro gel food, i make 100grams of gelfood containing 1000mg Metronidazole

and feed the fish 1% of its bodyweight of the gelfood ED.

But how much probiotics do i use for 100grams of this food?

I have bought theese : http://www.natur-drogeriet.dk/frame.cfm/cms/produktblad=yes/npv=22664/npbv=22664/sprog=1/grp=101/menu=101

...where 1 cap contains 4 billion freezedried germs (sry for Danish link).

Thx all

Hi Jesper,

The dosage of probiotics is 2x10^7/g, or 2x10^9/100g. Your capsule is good for 200 grams of gel food

Hi Jesper,

2x10^7/g, or 2x10^9/100g.

Why are you speaking klingon???

Ok. Let's try it again.

It's 20 million bacteria per gram of food, or 2 billion bacteria per 100 grams. Since each tablet contains 4 billion, you have enough for 200 grams
