Not sure how good your relationship with your vet is, but if you can get some piperezine, combined with Maracyn 2, or Levamisole if you can get it.

Could you give some info on this? Is it a stronger med to get rid of the worms?

Both are much stronger, yes, and has some larval effectiveness as well.

I've called both vets I use and neither carry those recommendations. I've also called the Calgary Avion and Exotic Pets and would have to bring a fish and stool sample in.

I'm still calling around, hopefully come up with something, at a reasonable cost. Vet visit would not be cheap.

Your vet will not give you a Rx for one or both?

No the one didn't even know what they were, I didn't ask the other and the Exotic Animal wouldn't write an RX without seeing what they were prescribing for.

I've called Pisces and they recommended something else, starts with meta something. I'll head there this afternoon.
