Hi all,

All of the anti-worm medications i have found locally are a bit useless. I have finally managed to get some PraziPro and Metro+ (yay!)

I have a number of puffers all clearly suffering with internal worms (lots of very bumpy tummies at dinner time!).

Firstly - anybody got a suggestion of which should be used first? or does it not matter?

I plan to use each for 4 days, followed by a week break and then use the other.

The Metro+ is a powder - should I mix it with a bit of tank water before soaking?

Also how long do you soak in these meds for? is 1 hour too much / too little?

Thanks

Thanks, regarding how long to soak, it says at least a few minutes but longer is better, would half an hour or an hour be too long and ruin the food to the point it wont be eaten by the fish?

I've done it as long as overnight. Try adding garlic to enhance taste.
