Re: How to treat for Camallanus Worms

[Fried]

Bought so de-wormer off the pet store shelf last week and it did near nothing to help.

I am now 5 hours into treating the tank following Bre's article and I can see the worms starting to come out. Only one platy and Bn seem to have any. Are my other fish resistant to worms or can I just not see them?

Thanks Bre for the article.:thumbup:

24 hours in and have removed quite a lot of white transparent poos and some red poos from tank. White Bn has still some worms showing.

5 days later white BN has no worms showing, I haven't been quick enough to get a photo.

But now some of my neons have a white spot on their nose. I have put some salt in the tank but I don't know if i should be treating them with some meds. They seem to be happy.

Had same problem with my neon tet I used some mela fix and big dose of easy life fluid filter medium and 50% water change daily and it went away as for the worm big l Sykes pig and poultry wormer works well

Thanks no_carbz, I will try your suggestion for neons, that easy life stuff sounds really good (just googled it, it has good reviews), nearly sounds too good to be true. Does anyone else use this stuff?

Anyways the bird wormer I'm using seems to be doing a good job.
