Hi all,
I am having a sudden outbreak of flukes in my main tank but made the mistake of treating it with Binox (I actually went to my local store) and asked for help. One of my old discus had clamped fins and no other symptoms. Never saw flashing....QT is down right now (long story). I used Binox yesterday in my 80 gallon. It's supposed to be a 4 day treatment. When I check my nitrite this AM, I find, to my horror, that I have 0.25 in my tank. I have already been doing a 50% WC this AM. So half the Binox is gone. I need to treat for flukes so I am thinking Prazipro. Can I add the Prazi-Pro now or must I do yet another WC and/or remove the remainder of Binox (nitrofurazone) with carbon?
Thanks!

Sophie (who keeps making mistakes!!!):(

Sophie,
I'd do another water change and remove all the binox... not because it will react with the prazi but because its having an effect on your biofilter..

hth,
al
