So the General cure just came in. They're in packets so not to sure how much to add to the food. Any idea? Each packet says it treats 10gallons of water.

2 scoops of GC + 2 scoops of Focus per 1 tablespoon of frozen or pellets

Ok I'll use the same scooper in the focus for the general cure. Thanks I'll keep y'all posted

@Humblefish where did you find or come up with mixing the General cure straight into the food versus adding to water directly? I'm a little concerned if it will harm the fish by directly adding into the food. I don't won't to loose any of my fish. Thank you

I was thinking about using prazi pro and dose the whole tank. What do you think about going that route?

General Cure contains praziquantel & metronidazole, two dewormers commonly used in the trade. When you food soak them, the medications pass through the intestines eradicating any worms living there. If you're worried about the concentration, you can use 1 scoop of GC + 1 scoop of Focus per 1 tablespoon of frozen food or pellets instead. Might take longer to clear out all the worms though.

Dosing the water will eradicate any external worms (e.g. flukes, turbellarians), but would be far less effective against any internal parasites or intestinal worms.
