Camillanus... Calamanus Worms

[superguppygirl]

So not sure if this is the right section but I have nemotodes, lovely PITA freaking worms, have tried every medicine sold at LFS, was suggested my another hobbyist to use Piperazine, found some at a vet supply store called Piperazine Dihydrochloride 97% (piperazine eq. to 52%) and now I have no idea how much to dose the tank to get rid of these stinking worms, been battling these things for over a month, can't find anything online for dosage and am really tired of fishing dead corpses out, I have 2 75G tanks with numerous guppies, platies, swordtails, aphistos, plecos, hillstream loaches, corydoras, gourami, betta, so please help

If you are 100% positive it is camallanus then you should try to find some levamisole HCL to treat them with. Other option is flubendazole which you can normally buy as a dog dewormer.

Thanks Mikaila, unfortunately extremely hard to get a hold of both of those without prescription, due to the morons in the drug trade, finally tracked down someone at local fish store who had a clue, and giving it a whirl if still have them the Levamasole I ordered ought to me here by then, worse that can happen my fish die...OH wait they are (sorry for the sarcasm) but 3 hours non stop phoning to talk to idiots who work at a pet/fish store but don't own fish and tell me that they don't carry my brand of food to feed aquatic worms, but might they suggest...GAH!
