I am after some Propolis to replace the NT Labs stuff I have had for years that is now running out. Is there anything of equivalent quality but cheaper as I have bought another carp brand one before and it was watery rubbish, so is it best to stick with the NT Labs stuff, what's reckon?

Buy it from Amazon or eBay , cheaper by far and better quality.

Personally I'd stick with the NT labs stuff, their gear is all very good

I suppose for those reading this who aren't familiar with Propolis it's important to say it's a natural product and though there may be different formulations of finished product you shouldn't think that any brands active ingredient (Propolis) is better than any others....though I suppose someone will come up with a angle of 'our Yucatan derived propolis is vastly superior'
Also worth noting for optimum results to use ulcer swab before applying propolis.

Edit, might be worth asking why NT labs use 25%, maybe they've found that a optimum level.
Do other brands state levels?
