Why use Prazipro?

Prazipro is a safe and effective treatment for a wide range of internal and external parasites, including skin flukes, gill flukes, tapeworms, and turbellarians. It is non-toxic to fish, plants, and beneficial bacteria.

Broad-Spectrum Control

Unlike many other medications, Prazipro is highly concentrated and requires only a single treatment to be effective in most cases. It is an essential tool for quarantining new fish or treating established tanks showing signs of parasitic infection.

Safety Tips

  • Use 1 teaspoon (5ml) per 20 gallons of water.
  • Remove activated carbon and stop UV/Skimmer during treatment.
  • One treatment typically lasts 5-7 days.
