So even after vigilant quarantine these nasty buggers have quite literally wormed their way into my tank. If any of you have ever battled this you know it's hell. With it comes fin rot, dropsy, eye cloud, ugh, fungal infection and just about every other disease you can imagine. I am here to seek advice as well as share my experiences in hope to help others. So I start my story first of all by saying the most important part of treatment is managing the secondary infections. I've found Victoria green(I like API fungus cure), melafix and pimafix are a very good cocktail. They are safe enough to use long-term(you'll need a few months too find the anti-parasitic that works) and they are also pretty broad spectrum and treat a variety of illnesses. I tried fenbendazole, which did not work for me but it has worked for others. I just ordered metrodiazole and levamisole which I will update how they work. I ordered through Peabody's medicated flakes by the way. Anyone have any other suggestions in the mean time?
