Kanaplex question

[snulma1]

So I have a pair of true percs that are having white stringy poop and fading color on some of their fins. I'm thinking that they have internal parasites. My LFS recommended giving them medicated food using Seachem's Kanaplex (Kanamyacin) and Focus (a binding agent). He recommended using bloodworms to medicate for some reason, however the fish don't seem to like the frozen blood worms.

I was wondering if I can medicate live brine or anything else and feed it to them. Or if I have to truly pull them out and QT and treat them. I'd rather not do this, as last time I did this, the pair I had got waaaayyyy stressed and didn't do so well.

Thanks.

The combo your LFS has recommended s/b good for internal infections .. but not necessarily internal parasites.
