Praziquantel is a very effective and safe treatment for skin flukes, gill flukes (dactylogyrus) and tape worms. This product is pure and only a little amount is needed for effective treatment, therefore is very economic as well.
Directions
Before treatment clean the aquarium glass, substrate and filter to reduce the organic waste load. Add 1 level spoon (included) (0.33 g) for every 66 liter (17 US gal). The treatment should continue for 8 days. In case you need to make water changes you need to re-dose according to the amount of new water only. Tips: 1- For a more effective treatment raise the temperature to 28-29 C if your fish can handle it. This will accelerate the life cycle of Dactylogyrus to make sure all all life stages of the parasite have reached adulthood and are killed. 2- The addition of salt at the rate of 1g/L during the treatment will enhance it’s effectiveness by removing the mucus that could help shield the parasite from the medication.
Precaution:
Store in a cool dry place, away from children reach. For use on ornamental fish only, not intended for use on fish for human consumption. FlukeX will not impact the bio-filter, the treatment should be in the main tank for all fish with filters running. If using in non-filtered tank or after use of Chloramine-T or bactocide (which will kill bio filter bacteria) use water treatment product that protect from ammonia spikes. It is also advisable to reduce/stop feeding to preserve water quality
