I have the nasty worms and 2 fish over a 3-4 moth period met their death due to the red worms sticking out of them. I bought Jungle anti-parasite food and it seems that all the fish are eating it except the two celebs rainbows who have the worms. I read that the only effective treatment for the worms is the use of pig dewormer levasole/levamisole and I ordered it here: http://www.valleyvet.com/ct_detail.html?pgguid=30e078b2-7b6a-11d5-a192-00b0d0204ae5
However, I was wondering what would the proper dosage be on a 55 gallon tank? I read that the medicine is not harmful to any fish so I would like to treat the entire tank and hopefully prevent the spread of these worms in the future and perhaps saving the celebs as well. Also, would the medicine hurt shrimp (1 amano and one bamboo)?
