How will medication effect the the other discus in the tank that don't have worms? Will it hurt them in any way?

If one fish in a tank shows symptoms of worms they all have worms. What have you seen that makes you think that they are wormy?

The hiding, turning darker, not eating and also it appears to be in the poop too. I did a little bit of looking around and for Prazi it says that it won't harm the fish, regardless of it being sick or not. But some of my fish are still eating like pigs as opposed to some just barely eating.

Prazi works for tape worms and flukes only. It is a specific wormer for tapeworms. I suggest that you up your WCs. You may have hex which is treated with Metronidazole but the turning dark and hiding have me concerned that you may have another problem. Good clean stable water is always the first thing to do.

My schedule is 50+% a day, I just bought some PraziPro and all it can do is help the fish out right?
