what is this stuff????

[Jason]

ok so I failed chemistry,

the folowing compounds were listed as the active ingredience in a product recomended to me for flukes.

I'm not one to just dump stuff in my tanks without knowing its effects and actions, and potential side-effects.
can anyone here shed some light on these?

0.0-dimethyl,1-hydroxy, 2-trichloromethyl phosphonate.??

Dylox. Active ingredient in Fluke Tabs, and other fluke remedies. Frank :)

I have used fluke tabs and I would recommend using caution or another med, or some suggest 1/2 strength.
My fish stopped eating after a wk. I thought it was pretty harsh.

It is an insecticide.

I think prazi or flubendazole are better treatments IMO (use 21 day treatment to get all flukes hatching from eggs too)
