It’s safe - dose at 80% of recommended dosage and add air stone to increase oxygenHello! I just got a box fish and I wanna do a prazi pro quarantine just to be safe. He doesn’t seem to have anything wrong with him but I would like to just make sure. Is this okay?
Boxfish are ok with prazi, just add extra aeration and dose it twice, 8 days apart, with a 25% water change before the second dose. Remove any carbon filtration, turn off any UV and run any skimmers but don’t collect the skimmate.Hello! I just got a box fish and I wanna do a prazi pro quarantine just to be safe.

That’s a long horned cowfish. They can handle prazi fine.More or less aiming to just making sure he doesn’t have anything that he can transfer to my other fish
Do you think I should also put metroplex in his food?That’s a long horned cowfish. They can handle prazi fine.
I find that an air pump running an airstone is the most reliable method to oxygenate the water during prazi treatments.
