Adrienne Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I thought Prazi worked best for intestinal worms. pm me for where to get it if you don't already know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faran Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Metro is for intestinal flagellates (bacteria with tails) and won't do anything for worms. Any idea what kind of worms you have? Levamisole is the best treatment for deworming but cestodes (tapeworms) are best treated with Praziquantel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.PROPHECY Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 not sure what worms ay , a few of my malawis are getting sunkin stomachs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faran Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Tapeworm is symptomatic of a distended (bulging) stomach rather than sunken. Levamisole would be my suggested treatment with the information given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
