Hydra is only a problem if you are
eeding fish with very tiny fry (tetras, rasboras, fighters or gouramies).<

>Back in the dinosaur days hydra was a bit of a problem when collecting live food from ponds for our Killi fish.  A penny (old copper coin) in every tank fixed the hydra and also kept velvet (Oodinium) at bay.<

Was not knocking the old cures, just making sure.

The book is a UK print, by two aquarium owners,<
>ALL ABOUT TROPICAL FISH,<
>Published 1958,<
>IF they are Hydra it WILL work, I have used this method in the UK and OZ, If you venture up my area I will give you the set I made.<
