Clown with internal stomach worms??? STringy poo?

[greenfroggiespawn]

What can i do to medicate it. I've had this WILD (assumption) CAUGHT clown and it has been fine and eating all along, untill recently. I can see the red blood veins in his stomach, and a stringry poo that does not detach. it has also stopped eatting.

what can i do? I dunno what medicine to use.

I would start with garlic extract added to the food. If things don't get better, try Praziquantel.

It's not even eating.

Where can I get prziquantel? Any online places? I checked my LFS and I dont think I've seen that.

Hikari sells a product called PraziPro which active ingredient is Praziquantel.

Internal parasites in wild clowns are pretty common ... std treatment is either piperazine or metronidazole - ones good for nematode infections and ones good for protozoan infections .. to my knowledge there is no way to determine what kind of infection you have - so try one and and if its not effective try the other.

Do guys know any reputable online vendors. I've checked the usual PA and MARINE DEPOT, but not sure if they got it.
