so im kinda low on my api general cure.. I like to keep it on hand just in case... but i have been seeing these parzi powders around and was wondering if anyone using these. i have plenty of metroplex (metronidazole) so im not really looking to restock that for some time.

This should work. Keep in mind that powdered prazi does not easily dissolve in water. Jay discusses how to administer powder in this thread

His guidance beginning around post number 14.
 
Prazi pro is a popular and widely used form of praziquantel
Increase oxygen when using this product as it lowers oxygen and appetite slightly
 
As the others have said. I would suggest going with the least expensive. Usually - a pure preparation rather than a branded 'aquarium' product would be less expensive. I would double check with the manufacturer that their particular brand is ok for aquaria.
 
The prazi powders are a pain to get dissolved. I much prefer just using the liquid version of PraziPro.
I know they say it can lead to bacteria blooms, but I've never seen it after using it a bunch of times. and its reef safe.

Only drawback is that it will make your skimmer go crazy for a few days, or until you do a water change.

If you do go with a powder form, DMSO from tractor supply can help get it dissolved, but I never liked doing this extra step.... prazipro is just easier/less fuss.
