I plan to do both at once. I've got lot's of filter media form my ceylon tank that's the perfect sg for hypo, so I'll fish her out soon. Here of some pics of our's:

Here's the answer I got for you:

I'm afraid I can't directly speak for Prazipro. You should probably get an e-mail off to them.

If it was Praziquantel and it was being fed to the fish (mixed in their food) I know there would be no problem. But if the de-worming is going to be done by adding chemicals to the water, then it is best to follow the recommendation by the product manufacturer.

If the med was added to food and administered, like the Jungle product, then I am confident that would be okay too. But if the product is being added to a hyposaline water -- I don't know.

There is always a possibility that when the water is hyposaline that the product behaves differently. The manufacturer knows best. If you find out for sure, let us know.

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

That does help. I will do both at once but make sure I stick to meds that are only mixed into food and not the water, which I prefer anyways.

Thanks for getting that info for me, BTW.

So I was just looking through my stuff and noticed I actually already have PraziPro. Can this be used to soak food in? The directions say it should be used as a bath, so I doubt it but I thought I would ask anyways.

Not sure about it being able to soak into the food, but if you have any freeze dry food, it'll be your best bet of getting the most meds into the fish. Fresh food just doesn't soak up as much as FD would.

I don't think prazipro is good in the food, you may have to go out and get Praziquantel, other than that I don't think you should do the bath thing unless you contact the company and find out, how is she this morning?
