gill flukes
I have been treating some of my discus that have gill flukes with potassium permanganate which I had some success. 2 recovered completely 2 died and I have 2 that really never noticed a difference. I would like to try praziquantel on these 2. I need help in what the proper dosage would be I would be treating them in a 25 gallon tank. I would also like to try some salt baths what would be the right way of doing a salt bath. Thank u very much for the help.

Re: gill flukes
Hi,
Are you going by symptoms in the fluke diagnosis? Or microscope? PRAZI is easy enough to use.... see here for how I used it for tapeworms..

The dosing is the same for flukes but you just repeat it every other day for 5-7 doses.

You also might find this useful..though its very dated.
