[xrboy_85]

Hey guys just running a worming treatment through my tank and wondering how long to leave it in before the first water change.

Cheers Justin

Ps: country town vets are hopeless when it comes to prazi and metro,, hmmm yeh iv heard of that ill see if i can get some for you. never heard back from them!!!!

[ILLUSN]

24-48 hours should be fine, generally i'd do a treatment after a water change and just change water the next day as usuall.

Cheers Justin

hey guys
wondering if someone can shed some light here, did the worming treatment but not so sure it worked. let me know what you think!!



Have tried to ask a vet here in town about prazi and metro and he said never heard of it mate, asked at the produce store and they wanted to know if they were called different things by the suppliers?? diff label same chemical??

those fish still need treatment, they arnt black and the fins arnt clamped, so i dont think you need metro, what wormer did you use?

prazi is old unter "fluke and worm tablet", "wormrid" etc you will have to check the ingredients on the bottle

if i were you i'd use both big L in week 1 prazi on weeks 2 and 3 bigL week 4 if you still see white poo on week 4 do a big water change and try metro, for metro you'll need to visit a vet, or a doctor who keeps discus

4x18x28= 120cmx45cmx70cm= 378L

dose rate is 1mL/7L = 378/7= 54mL
