I want to treat all my fish for worms.

What are some good meds that will treat worms? I dont want to do any shot gunning either.

Thanks.

don't you use the powder if they don't eat the flake?

Yes you would have to. I use the flakes as a "rountine" deworming. Sorry skip, I don't know the dose for Vermisol.

The instruction states one feeding every other day for total of 5 days which I have followed in the past but now (borrowing from Eddie).....I feed 2-3x a day for 3-5 days. I found the more intense regiment worked better....fish had better appetite, more growth and overall healthier. This was how I did it.
