I just did a 80% WC on my 90 gal tank. I then treated the tank with PraziPro, 1/2 teaspoon per 20gal. Now all 10 of my Discus are hanging at the top of the tank in one corner. Their heads are tilted upward toward the surface. I usually feed FDBWs right after the WC and they go nuts over them. I just put some on the glass. They are not interested................... HELP

Dosing should be 1/2 teaspoon per 10 gallons according to my package. You may have greatly overdosed the tank if you really treated 1/2 teaspoon per gallon.

I'm no expert but i thought dosage for PraziPro was more like 1 teaspoon per 20gals in which case you have overdosed dramatically....i would suggest doing some very large water changes if that's the case

Sorry, dosed 1/2 teaspoon per 20 gals. I think I might not have added the Safe as I do normally. Got busy trying to do too many things at once. I'm doing another 80% WC change now.

Hopefully that does it for you. I think I would have just added the safe now and giving it some time to see what their response was.
