Piperazine used in food: any adverse side effects?

Hi all,

I am currently using Piperazine bits to deworm 2 discus in my QT. I have read some bad things about piperazine and was just wondering if any of you had experienced them....

Thanks!!!

I'm interested in that answer too Sophie, I have some on hand that I have never used. Frankly medications scare me.

Not sure what piperazine "bits" are??

I have used blackworms soaked in piperazine, also used pellets soaked in piperazine with good results.

Hi again,

They are like tetra bits but with piperazine inside. I bought them ready made from Rocky Mountains Discus. I hope this helps!:)

Thanks,
Sophie

Rocky Mountain Discus has some good products, they should work well.

I have not used them myself.

Thanks Ardan for that. So far, I am very happy with their "deworming" program!
