Is this safe for use in a tank with scaleless fish, such as an elephant nose?

Yes, just follow the prescribed dosage and length of treatment. Worked perfectly when the disease is not in a very advanced stage.

Sure. I would just be careful as the uv sterilizer portion of this is what was faulty and killed my fish.

Yes, I would never use this in saltwater, also I would not use it for anything bigger than Bluegill or Sunfish if you want it to last, its just not a quality piece.

I haven't but I would think it would poison the water if there were fish in the tank. Check with your pet shop to see what they suggest......

no experience with fish tanks - but it works great when working with grout, thin set, Portland cement products. keeps you from getting skin poisoning - and have decent grip in the fingers

I have no special knowledge about fish tanks, This one worked very well in our green house for plants. It does not get hot.

I guess it would depend on how hot your heating element gets, but I can't recommend it. It is definitely plastic. The lower end of the melting point of most plastic is around 220F. This website (http://homeaquaria.com/best-aquarium-heaters-fish-tank/) says that this mini heater (and you would indeed want a small heater) is "ideal for use in your glass or plastic tanks," but I have not verified that claim. Good luck.

You may want to only use it if you tank / fish have parasites. This product can stress your fish so only treat if necessary.

Yes, you can treat the entire tank. I treates Corys with and had no issue. Scaleless fish are at the most risk by any medication but then again, they are also at risk of any disease or fungus they have too. Good luck.

The materials are non toxic for children so are safe in an aquarium. The piece would have to be weighted as it will float.

The package says it's not recommended for aquariums. It's fairly toxic stuff and any residue would probably kill fish. I used it to patch a crack in my driveway. It did a good job at that.

I didn't use it for an aquarium. Put it in canning jars and put candles on top of it.

I use ours on our home water storage tanks. There's really nothing that could contaminate anything. It's just a hard plastic case and an extension cord. No different than most aquarium devices. If your using it for a aquarium topoff than I would not recommend it though as it has to rise / fall quite a bit to turn on/off. You can control that by how long the cord to the float is but I would say minimum of 3". My tanks drop about 18" before it turns on. There are many ato devices out there like the jbj auto top off that work excellent for fish tanks. It's what I use on my 280g. Hope that helps

Like Robert Ball said, it says not to use in on aquariums but I used it on a 4 gal. acrylic tank and it has held up fine and my son's fish hasn't died yet. It has been over 6 months, too. Hope this helps.

I did not use it for live fish. It was a decorative item for my daughters sand and sea farewell breakfast after her wedding and we served candy out of it. It seems like it would be a challenge to keep any real fish in it with the open side mouth.

I haven't used it in a fish tank, but I would say No. It's very fine and dusty and you would be better off with the fine gravel rather than sand for use with fish.

By the size you could but I am not sure about the material if it would hurt the fish or not.
