Anglerfish: Prazi and Metro Safe in QT

[Averhoeven]

I just wanted to post this in case anyone else has the same question. I got a tiny little (pinky nail sized) angler a couple weeks ago. Tonight was the conclusion of his TTM course. I looked through the forums here regarding my usual Prazi/Metro course during TTM, but could only find one quote, from 1 person, that essentially said "I dunno, never tried it myself, but I've never seen an angler survive any meds". Well... that's not a real answer for me so, unbeknownst to him and possibly to his dismay, he became a guinea pig because he came from Petco and there's no way he ain't getting treated.

I can now say that he has completed his TTM and the usual 2 courses of prophylactic prazi and metro without an issue. I used PraziPro and Metroplex and dosed according to the instructions if you want specifics, but I'm sure General Cure would work just fine too. He still eats frozen, etc. Just wanted to put that out there in case somebody else finds themselves in the same position.

Picture of the little guy?

Since when does petco get anglers.

I never intend to keep anglers, but with how little we know about quarantining them, I find this to be a useful anecdote, so thanks. Let us know the further progress.
