I'm not qualified to comment on what differences exist between chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine, I'm pointing out that aquarium cleaner tablets are not medicine. Even if the names are the same, you have no idea what a tablet like that is cut with.

That's an excellent point. However, it seems that people treating their fish with it are also looking for >95% pure chloroquine.[0]
But still, fish aren't people. So using anything except pharmaceutical grade is dangerous.
