Luke* Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Brian's right, get some fluke tabs. Might pay to treat the whole tank. Pick up some fluke tabs from LFS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogmatix Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Dont forget fluke tabs are poisionous to all cats, caorys and from memory sharks, but not otto sp. this drug causes these fish temp paralisis or somtimes death Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
