BumpI've read this thread as well, and I am unsure if the fish febendazole or panacur would be best. I have a biocube 29 with a ton of brittle stars and bristle worms. I also have a toadstool leather. My target is colonial hydroids. I want to treat my tank with the least amount of side effects. Mostly concerned about my toadstool. I would prefer to not have to set up a qt just for one toadstool coral for 3+ months. Any advice on the best source of fenbendazole would be appreciated. Thanks!
Also, having a good population of brittle stars and bristle worms, would I have to be concerned about an ammonia spike if they all die?

Thanks! Any idea about how a toadstool leather would handle the treatment?I think the best supply is Thomas Labs version. I posted a amazon link a few pages back, it used to be available in a 3 packet version for cheap. This is the 30 packet version, try to find the 3 packet version for much cheaper.
This is the 12 packet version. Hopefully some retailer has the 3 packet version.
Good to hear you didn't have any tank issues. Did you use the fish bendazole? What dose did you use? And what corals do you have in your tank? Were you targeting hydroids?Just finishing up, snails are fine and no coral issues.

Thanks for sharing and good to hear the clams are as happy as....well clams I suppose....sorry couldn't help my self.Colonista snails still alive btw :-/
I was thinking along the same lines that moving the toadstool might be just as much if not more stressful. Thanks again for the response. I think I will be treating my tank within the next month or so and I'll share my experience.I don't have experience with softies. If you search this thread for "leather", you'll see a few comments from twillard that says there is no problem. Treatment is only ~30h, so you could move something to a bucket + heater for that period and it will likely be ok. That might be more stress however than leaving it be.
Yes fish version via amazon at 1.5 per gallon. Hydroids, vermited snails and colonista snail. I didn’t have a huge outbreak of hydroids but enough to cause me to use this. I have various sps and lps. Acros, scoly’s, mushrooms, gorgonian, blastos, acans yadda yadda. I was surprised the gorgonian lived but the biggest and most exciting news at least to me is that both of my clams were unharmed!
So far it seems like it did, I still see one left though.Did it take out the vermetids?
