Flukes are difficult to diagnose visually, and even the FW dip only really shows one species (Neobendenia) the others require a microscope to see. Because Prazipro can be dosed in a DT and is well tolerated, it is really only the cost that comes into play regarding using it as a diagnostic tool - you use it and if the fish get better, then it was flukes, if they don't, it is something else. You just treat the tank 2x, 8 days apart with good aeration

Chemiclean isn't a medication, it is a type of erythromycin that controls cyanobacteria, but has no effect on common bacterial pathogens.

Thank you again, Jay!! I really appreciate the advice. I’m going to start the Prazi today.
