sounds good the metro will not harm your bio filter and is ineffective after 8 hours ,a good way to mix is clean container with lid and small ammount of fairly warm water and shake till your arm drops off,good luck

Try to get a photo up if you can,but the only thing without seeing it i would net fish out and wrap in wet towel and see if you can extract the "worm" then dab the site with iodine on a cotton tip be very carefull not to get iodine in eyes or gills.

Hi again yes i have used levamisole but have found it only in the form of aviverm bird wormer and to get the ideal dose of 2ppm have used 8.5ml of aviverm per 100g i have left treatment in for 24 hours then as large water change as possible then repeated after a week.the fish will probly not be very interested in food during treatment but soon back to normal.
