I have just used Big L today in the tank as I noticed 1 fishy passing white poos. Now I have noticed 2 fish rubbing on rocks and plants so I am guessing gill flukes. How long before I can add the prazi after doing a big L treatment. The other question is should i treat for gill flukes with only this symptom or wait for other signs?

give it a few days after your water change at the end of the levimenisole treatment.

prazi is quite mild and should't cause too many problems if your worming anyway I'd recomend it, you never know, your fish may have tapeworms instead of/in addition to nematodes.

Will the prazi affect my filters?

Nup. You will need to do a filter clean after the treatment. Naturally use tank water. Should say that on the container?
