Noddy65 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I've bought myself a little bar fridge just for fish food...keep all my bulk items in it...brine shrimp eggs, flake, pellets and frozen stuff...best $100 ever spent and keeps the wife happy as well (no more frozen shrimp in with the veges) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy65 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Also dewormed some new fish yesterday using New Era as the base ingredient...worked a treat...best way so far to deworm and treat your fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2Hell Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 what recipe are you using for the worming treatment Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy65 Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 Im using praziquantal tabs (32 mg from memory), crushed and then mixed with the new era...I then make small pellets with the mix and feed to around 500 gms of fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noddy65 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I'm interested mike. Wouldn't mind trialing some deworming food.I just made it up myself Yellow....I got the praziquantal from the vet (its a tapewormer pill for dogs and cats, you can buy it over the counter) and made up the prazi/New Era mix myselfMike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Link2Hell Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Droncit worming tabs were what we use to use as prazi was the active itemnote this works for flat worms and you need to use Levamisole pig wormerfor round worms from memoryhttp://www.loaches.com/disease-treatment/levamisole-hydrochloride-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullyYellow Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Thanks mike. You suggesting I should mix some of my own? But I'm guessing it would absorb the solution relatively well. Is the purpose of your wormer preventative or for immunity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
