Mmiller2001 Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 Bought some Cherry Barbs that were turbo sick. TL/DR I've have beaten everything so far and to my surprise are looking 80% better. However, I need some help. I have 2 that still look overly bloated; causing some color loss in the fish. I don't see worms, but the guy with the most bloat looks to have a small red dot right at the anus. Doesn't look prolapsed or anything. Kinda like a poo is emerging, but not (if that make sense). I've never seen Camallanus, so I'm just not sure. Here's the run down: Med Trio and continued Paracleanse per direction 1 week rest 1 week PraziPro Now I'm starting Metroplex orally. (maybe a stubborn set of tape worms?) I have fenbendazole on hand: So my question is; continue Metro just to see or just go for fenbendazole off my assumption? This guy won't let me get a picture. He only comes out during feeding then goes back to hiding. Thanks for any help!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Cory Posted May 15, 2021 Administrators Share Posted May 15, 2021 Robert just notified me last night that he successfully treated camallanus red worms with expel p. It took 3 treatments. We finally got some into the store. This is only 1 successful treatment so we aren't going forward with carrying it yet, and our recommendations, but thought it appropriate to share our initial success with ya.
