API General Cure for Boxfish?

[Jari81]

Hi,

my Boxfish will finish it's last Tank Transfer tomorrow.
He was a little bit stressed and pale from the transfers, but not one spot of ich
appeared in the last 12 days.

Should I now treat him with General Cure for worms/parasites, or do boxfish
handle meds as bad as copper?

I'm hesitant to treat him with meds since he is eating very well, has healthy poop,
so he doesn't seem to have any worms.
Can boxfish since they are scaleless even get flukes?

They can get flukes. If it's not showing any signs of parasites in all this time, it's most likely clear.

Congrats on your success. Up to you on the meds. You could also extend out your QT duration if you don’t wanna use meds.

Thanks!

I will probably just keep him in QT for another week, and then put him in.
