    Parasites on fish (flatworms???)

    I dosed the Prazipro yesterday and lost 5 more. It may be too late for them but I'll try. Who knows how long they've been affected....the store refunded me all the money for all the fish. We will see how many I can save! The store I got them from thinks they're leeches....still researching what...

    Parasites on fish (flatworms???)

    I had callamanus worms in another tank and beat them with the fenbenzadole. These are a whole different ball game! So much worse- much larger- and are appearing throughout the muscle tissue in the fish :-/ Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    Parasites on fish (flatworms???)

    I didn't even think a parasitic flat worm even existed!? I have had three more deaths today. Did a large water change and dosed Prazi Pro. I am looking into the contradictions (I think it's safe though) to also use fenbenzadole. That drug kills callamanus worms like a pro- maybe these too...

    Parasites on fish (flatworms???)

My QT tank is a cycled 30 gallon and has been running a long time (0 am,0 nitrite, 20ish nitrate, 7.4ph )It seems they've got some kind of worm (I think a type of unsegmented parasitic flatworm) ....but I can't seem to find...

    240 gallon planted beast

    Is there a common name for levamisole that I could find locally? I read that fen was a great alternate med (I can't seem to find local levamisole) in any case- I don't see more worms lol Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

    240 gallon planted beast

I haven't noticed any worms, though I don't know if you can tell, but his black (anal fin?) on the bottom is...

    Tall Hex tank

    I just need some opinions....I have this talk hex tank....6x 9" panels and 2 feet tall (about 25 gallons).... I could do a planted shrimp tank with some tiny ember tetra (or something) .....or maybe some kind of small reef? (I've never done saltwater though so it would be totally new to me....)...

    Their equipment is all separate, but there has been movement of certain fish between tanks in the house. Currently the only fish with visible worms are one of the dwarf rainbowfish. There is another tank experiencing whitish poo, but no visible worms...and also, I noticed yesterday that he...
