Fluke treatment in tank?

[Caseyoidae]

I think Blenny has a fluke on his Gil. I’ve had him about 3 years. Any food additives that are reef safe? He’s impossible to catch without draining the tank. Which is a mixed reef heavy on zoas and sps fish are all acting normal but tang seems like he has an itch.

Prazipro is a good reef safe option. Just note that it kills worms so bristle, tube worms, feather dusters, etc.

Thank you, I will research and order some!

Will this kill red planaria? just curious as I have another tank with a few..

Yes it will

Thanks! Save a few bucks on flatworm exit. Other tank can handle the water change afterwards

Verify it is flukes by giving fish a freshwater dip and see if any sesame seed looking objects fall off fish, then you'll know it has flukes.

Thanks! They’re next to impossible to catch with the exception of the clown fish. Could I use one of them as the guinea pig. All fish have been together a couple months but I haven’t see any sesame seeds on the clowns like I have twice now on the Blenny.
