Introducing my home 17k gallon reef

I just like the fact you went with blue on the stallion. It's nice to see something different than the usual red.
 
Formalin replaces metro and even prazi, but keep those ABX handy just in case a secondary bacterial infection strikes. I’ve been using Cipro and Baytril (Enrofloxacin) lately. Works a lot faster than the old school stuff, but also very hard on the biofilter.
Doc. Whats the flubendazole dose in a real qt not a bath. There are numbers all over the place from prazi dose to 95 mg per gallon to something in-between from fishman. ??‍♂️♂️♂️♂️ Thx.
 
Thank you. I would never drive red !!

I love my blue & red cars!

I've never used flubendazole, although a quick search on Google Scholar makes it look interesting.

I have used fenbendazole for deworming. I've used the 25 mg/L dosage for both the bath and in-tank treatment; but I've also successfully tested the much lower 2 mg/L dosage (in-tank prolonged immersion) against monogeneans. I'll probably stick with an in-tank dosage of 2.5 mg/L (to mimic the Prazipro dosage) unless it fails me.

IME; fenbendazole is much more effective dewormer than praziquantel.

To be fair, most "prazi resistant flukes" are "hiding out" behind a scale or something. Whether this is just incidental or an actual strategy they employ to avoid contact with the medication I do not know. I think fenbendazole lasts longer in the water, so it is more likely to kill these.
