I don't think they are suitable to mix with fish food. You can drop them an email to confirm it.
I have the medication sterazin from waterlife products which good for killing gill flukes and other intestinal worms.A couple of my discus are thin and I suspect some intestinal worm infection.Can I mix tetra bits soaked in sterazin medication and will it help?
These fish have been eating well but are a little skinny for quite some time and I use RO water and keep nitrates below 5 always with daily 10% WC.No other unusual symptoms other than this thinness.I use well water.Temp average 29c and pH steady at 6.5.

Thanks sir I will e mail them today
Sorry i know this is a very old post but could u mix sterazin with fish food?
I would not, from what I remember it contains a cocktail of chemicals like malachite green, formalin and acryflavin? maybe also a dewormer like piperazine.
If you know the ingredients please post them and I will confirm but I'm pretty sure its meant for external treatment in the water.
hth,

Seriously doing huge waterchanges per day and ammonia and nitrites are at 0, nitrates goes up and down but most the time at 5ppm and every now and then kreeps to 10ppm but thats only 10% of the time, feeding bloodworms one per day, 3times a day i use tetra prima and 2times i use flakes... not sure whats bugging them... been in the tank 2weeks but was semi cycled with nitrite spike of 0.8mg/l, but did huge water changes and i am still doing these water changes but now its cycled fully as u can see so not sure if they been moved to much or just bad stress from when i didnt know what i was doing in the beggining...

It is nerve racking when cant help them. The helpless feeling is the worst. Hang in there, where there is a will there is a way.
