One can’t get legally get levamisole in Canada for anything (not even vets), but one can get fenbendazole dog dewormer. Some people have worked out the precise measurements to treat tanks with it, but it requires precise measurements of very small amounts of powder, and is still quite risky.

Hello Michael! Thank you for the video, it helped a lot with the stress. Had a guppy die on me today with clear symptoms. I have another tank running right now (55 gallons) that's starting the cycling process. I'm worried about cross contamination since I added some plants from the infected tank to the new tank before I knew of the worms. Since there's no fish in the tank, just some snails, is it possible that if I wait a month whilst doing the setup process I won't have to fear the worms? I've heard that due to their life cycle process they won't have the chance to mature to the point they can reproduce. Is that correct or should I just do a full reset? (also drinking a carbonated water rn since you asked lol!)

So.. I helped my brother clear these out of his Oscar tank. We used panacur C mixed into a cup of aquarium water and blood worms and let it soak. Only fed that twice a day and did water changes every two days. Went for 4 days and took a two week break and did it again. Another two week break and did it again. It seems to have worked. But I now have them in my 20L nano 😞 it's my colony breeding tank for various micro rasboras, painted fire red cherries, and a couple gups and some oddballs. Im freaking out but I am gonna try this food I was unaware of it. Thankyou so much

Here's my problem I have only 1 tank. It is all natural. Detritus, rhabdocela, copepods, 1 horned Nerite, 1 black rainbow shrimp, and 3 infected Endler Guppies...I don't want to kill any of my microfauna at all...I'm am honestly stunned and have no idea what to do. What can I possibly do?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

You have no choice, you have to treat.

[@andrewbryden9360]

I might buy a really cheap aquarium and set it up as my quarantine tank, then put my shrimp and fish in it. I'll medicate them and then wait out the remainder life cycle in my initial tank. That way, the parasite will expire and I won't have to kill anything. What do you think though? I've only been doing this for a year, and this is my first tank and parasite experience.

[@M0th.303]

Thanks for the video, I’m incredibly frustrated because I live in Canada and levamisole isn’t sold here. I was prepared to have everything in my tank die on me because of that but I’m hoping to get some fenbendazole on my next paycheck.

The parasite ones(one of my guppies is looking thin and not fattening up again pretty sure she dropped some fry a while back but she isn’t putting back on weight )

[@EverythingaquaticNet]

Anti-Parasite Duo and Quad have different meds. The duo's active ingredients are metronidazole and praziquantel. A great general dewormer as it covers about 80% of the common parasites we encounter. Quad is praziquantel, levamisole, garlic and Epsom salt. Also a dewormer, but doesn't treat flagellets or protozoa, but it can treat resistant worms, such as camalanus. Plus levamisole has the added bonus of boosting the immune system.

Do you still go by the medicated food method Michael? I’m dealing with these for the first time ever - not knowing that a guppy (even tho I did quarantine it) had them. It’s really upsetting, so I’m scared I’m gonna lose my entire tank. The two treatments Lev & Fen are really hard to acquire here (ban) but I did find a seller from another prov that has medicated food. If it gets to me, medicated food is my own bet. These worms are hell, already one loss.

Most meds i carry are invertebrate safe. Avoid nitrofurazone and products containing it as it can kill them.

[@anthonyragan2696]

Looking at my own situation, since I have substrate, I'd probably have to go straight to fenbendizole (sp?). I assume Levamisol only expels them doesn't kill them, so I'm thinking there's a strong risk of reinfection if you don't get all the worms vacuumed up. Is that right?

Yessir

[@Alex-fr7br]

is general cure enough for Camallanus worms? or do I need the quad flakes?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

I would use the flakes

[@Shaden0040]

Does this work for Clown loaches with the wasting skinny parasite/disease?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

If they have internal parasites, yes.

[@silliwanker73]

The guppies don't try to eat the dead red worms at the bottom?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

Some times.

[@johnwood738]

Question can Pleco’s get this and would you treat the same way?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

Yes, and I would use sinking pellets instead of flakes.

[@johnwood738]

[@johnwood738]

I have snails.. and I noticed one of my guppies has small ones protruding out. What should I get? Also, I dont want to harm my snails.

[@-Aprilllll-]

May have to try the medicated flakes!

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

Try what I recommended in the video.

[@-Aprilllll-]

@@MichaelsFishRoom I just bought some of your medicated flakes. I have snails in there with them. Should I move the snails into a different tank, then treat the guppies?

Is it ok to feed other food while treating with quad flake For 13 days?

[@MichaelsFishRoom]

What do the directions say Jack? I think they say "only feed quad flake" If I remember correctly......

[@jacksherlock2342]

@@MichaelsFishRoom you are correct. thanks. It says "only food source" for 10 to 14 days.
