I Need Some Help Again With My Oscar!

[Makilla]

Hello All!

I posted a topic some days ago about my oscar having internal parasites!
I did my 3 times water treatment (internal and external anti parasites treatment from JUNGLE) and today was my third and last treatment.
Now what should I do? Should I try to feed him by tomorrow morning normal food or wait for a couple of days? I kept him without food for almost 15 days then tried to feed him anti parasites food which he didnt like.
Is it a good idea to feed him normal food by tomorrow or wait again for a couple of days?
Someone of you sent me a link about anti parasites medicines but the problem is that I dont know from where to get them. Can I find some of them at a pharmacy?
Thanks again for your kind support guys, really appreciated!

Laurence.

Effective anti-internal parasite meds are only available from a vet, so find one localy that is prepaired to work with you, then get together a poo sample for them and three sources showing what the internal parasites look like and how to treat them. They will examine the poo and cross-reference the sample with the sources. When they confirm the case of parasites, they will perscribe a medication. This medication is usualy socked by them. If not, they will tell you where to go to collect.

Edit, the above assumes you are in the UK. Where are you based? You need a med baced on Metrodanizole or flubendazole. Wormer plus cantains the latter but IME it is useless for these infections.

I doubt you would find any at the pharmacy but yes it would be safe to continue feeding at least ever other day
