PraziPro

[LobsterOfJustice]

How long does it last? Havent used mine in a while and want to make sure it's still "good"... does it go bad? Mine is clear, slight pinkish hue, and thick (not excessively thick though).

Also can it be used at the same time as copper (specifically cupramine)? I dont mind waiting and treating separate, but no sense in drawing out the process by another week if I dont have to.

Yes it can be used in conjunction with copper. I redose prazi and copper weekly (especially after water changes) to keep levels up. This is obviously done on two very large and some small fish only systems.

I have also attempted dose prazi directly into their food and seen good results with that. (use seachems focus to help the medication bond to the food).

As far as if it is still good, most of the foods, additives, an medications we use have a Lon shelf life but after a year I would stop using it.

Call them, I am reading the bottle and don't see a self life.

Is it common for fish to stop eating while being treated with prazipro?

 

[roktsintst]

Yes, prazi will supress their appetite some...

2nd that on diminished appetites while dosing with Prazi. I have also successfully dosed Prazi (or General Cure) with Seachem Copper without issues. My standard treatment is GC first, copper if indicated, followed 2-3 weeks later by a Prazi regimen.

I have that problem too. All the time!! :beer:

I would get a new one. I have had a couple of bottles go bad.

Thanks for the replies. My declivis pretty much stopped eating once the prazi was dosed, still picking here and there every few days but for the most part is fasting. Ate like a champ for the week before the prazi was dosed though.

Yeah, My multifasciata ate much better once I did a waTER change and added some carbon after dosing Prazi...
