After reading and rereading several threads on PraziPro resistant flukes, I've decided to purchase some Fenbendazole and treat the fish in my 180 gal FOWLER. Buying this med for a 180 gallon tank is expensive. The usual process is to quarantine fish in a smaller tank, but my fish have grown too large and there are too many of them to put in separate tanks. My only option is to remove the inverts and treat the tank.

So...on to my questions: Does anyone know if I can safely substitute Fenbendazole intended for larger animals? And how do I know the actual Fenbendazole amount in the bottle? Has anyone used them safely in their tanks before? #reefsquad

Examples below:

1) Safe-Guard for goats 10% suspension: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/p...e-guard-dewormer-for-goats-125ml?cm_vc=-10005
I'm also confused about the amount of Fendbendazole in the product. The label says suspension 10% 100 mg and the bottle quantity says 125 mg. Does that mean there is a total of 100 mg of Fenbendazole in the entire bottle?


2) Panacure suspension 10% : https://www.google.com/shopping/pro...&ved=0ahUKEwjH87Hql_LlAhUOHTQIHT1yDUkQ8wII9gM

The label says suspension 10% 100 mg and the bottle quantity says 1000 mg. Does that mean there is a total of 100 mg of Fenbendazole in the entire bottle or per treatment for the animal intended?

Thanks in advance for your help!
