Your fish has worms? There are some anti-parasitic meds out there, but you should only use them if you're sure you have parasites. Unnecessary medication can have a negative impact on fish health.
Deworming is typically a good idea if you are dealing with wild caught fish or fish that have been raised outdoors or subject to other fish raised outdoors in ponds. For totally indoor raised fish, deworming should be on an as needed basis.
