Epona01 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I have been slowly stocking 60 gallon tall. 1st ones added after med trio was 4 months ago. Last ones after med trio a month ago. I have a batch in QT right now. Question is when should I just deworm the display tank? After fully stocked? Or should I do it now before I add this batch? And in future how often should it be done?

FrozenFins Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Deworming is part of the trio, is it not? If they have all been through to med trio, why deworm them again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 i wouldnt medicate them as a maintenance. if you suspected they may have an issue, that is the time to consider medication, especially since you did quarantine them, and treat them originally.

Epona01 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Okay, I just heard Cory mention he deworms periodically. I have horses that I do twice a year 2 different wormers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 horses, dogs etc get it once in a while, but in my line of thinking, fish in an aquarium, once they are in the tank are not exposed to outside animals that they can get worms from.

Epona01 Posted December 16, 2020 Author Share Posted December 16, 2020 My thought was more a med trio for quarantine is not really medicating for worms, and with doing so many batches to fully stock the tank parasite eggs could easily slip through. Especially since I am just doing quarantine for a month each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
