Hi All
I have used Prazipro in the past and just recently in the last two weeks to treat for flukes in my 55 gallon. About a week ago 2 of my 6 discus expelled long white pooh which I believe to be tapeworm, probably expelled because of Prazipro treatments. The discus effected are 4 inches and 5 inches in size and don't act sick at all. None of the fish do. The 5 inch discus that expelled the thicker long white worm is not eating but active. I have always changed my water at least 75% every day. My fish have been healthy for months now up to this happening. I read that tapeworms can sometimes develop a resistance to Prazipro and that there is something better called Kusuri wormer Plus. My question is: anyone have knowledge about this product Kusuri?

The Kusuri wormer is flubendozole based. It does not treat tapeworms that I know of.

You may be better off with Levamisole. Also, angelplus carries a wormer flake if they are currently still eating, give that a try.
