Look for Seachem ParaGuard

Awesome! Thank you so much. :)

Hum...looked at the ingredients in Paraguard and it says it doe not contain formaldehyde.

Read up about it on their website. It's really basic, but safe

Maybe you could get some Formaldehyde from a pharmacist. I just read it's usually a 37-56% solution for fish.
Good luck

Paraguard does something similar although less strong.

You can try to order some Kordon Formalin 3 dip from some USA sites but not sure they ship to Canada:

Formalin must never freeze so if you order it make sure the temperature will be warm enough when you order, day and night.
