So - do I win a prize for getting it right? ;)
Gross.

I would use the Prazi-Pro as it will kill the tapeworms and you won't have to worry about your other fish having the same issue.
Keep in mind, they are an issue for the fish as they are 'eating' what he eats.

If you have feather dusters in your tank - you might want to remove the fish to treat...they will likely die from the treatment.


yes you did win! you get.... a really big, giant, warm, priceless.... thank you! horray!!! haha lol he is the only fish in the tank, and no corals/inverts yet. there will be a miniatus grouper going in with him as soon as my friend can catch him from his tank, but other then that he is single in his home as of right now.

I like to bite my nails right after taking my hands out of my tank. The cuticles are so soft and tasty from the salt. Seriously though I hope your fish is ok after this ryan

hahaha, i dont want to know what you do after you go in the ocean! im surprised you have any fingers to type anything on here! haha anyway thanks jimmy!

it looks like a parasite - many fish that are wild caught get/have them.

im sure he was wild caught, have not seen too many tank raised clown trigs. good to know though...


i just picked up yesterday the prazi-pro. the one by aquarium solutions right? i got that one. kind of confused on directions though... it says as a bath... as in the main tank, a quarintine tank, or actually get him caught in a bucket and dose like a dip? and once i start to use it should i be looking for anything inparticular? like should he be pooping any more out or anything special? will i know it worked by never seeing the worms again or something?

thanks again everyone too for the info and care. he is still doing very well. no stress shown at all, and still eats like a champ...yet now i know why:irked:. this also explains in my previous thread i posted about about my trigger being so crazy fat randomly. i love my trig and im going to make sure i do everything i can to make him healthy, he is my buddy!:hug:
