[Zbrafish] anaesthetic for physiology

[Christian Broesamle]

Hi all,

Does anyone know of an anaesthetic that can be 
used in an electrophysiology paradigm in fish? We 
are interested in measuring nerve conductance 
velocity. Tricaine/Mesab/MS-222 blocks action 
potentials and therefore is useless for us. Has 
anyone used curare to block movements? What about 
analgesics?

Thanks,

Christian
