What's the medication of choice for this?
Obviously, I'd prefer something safe for sensitive fish, as well as not harmful to plants and biological filtration.
Something that isn't really prone to developing resistance would be nice.
(Should I do preventative treatment as well, or only use as needed?)
I'd like to keep something on hand and I've also spotted fin flukes on two fish!
I've never had this problem before. I'm wondering if it's from growing some plants outside with tadpoles getting into it. I always QT my fish.
Prazi seems to be for mainly internal parasites. I use Safeguard for that.
It hasn't had any effect on these flukes.
The only things I have on hand for possibly ectoparasites are Methylthene Blue and Nitrofuracyne Green.
I prefer to not use the latter if necessary bc it's so wide use. It's a last resort med I keep on hand.
