I had no idea! 18:15 < muurkha> the video claims you eliminate all porosity, but I think it's more likely that you reduce your porosity by about a third 18:16 < fenn> i think there is some policy against it because you have to use crazy keywords like "fish mox" or "aquamox" 18:16 < fenn> but as usual ebay is incompetent 18:17 < muurkha> it isn't in their interest to be too competent, it lowers their proits 18:17 < muurkha> *profits 18:19 < Ashstar> also, large feed supply stores have some 18:19 < fenn> lmao this is straight up bribery: "Biaxin (Clarithromycin Tablets).
