Prazi (praziquantel) Help
So - tell me: did ya try mixing it yet? Even mixing it in Proform-C didn't
do much . . .Supaverm is much easier to use s.

I put it in the blender - got tired of shaking the darn solution. It
ended
up sticking to everything, but not blending in. In other words, the side
of
the blender got a nice coating, the blades got a nice coating, and the
water
only got vaguely milky. I ended up having to take a scrubbie out to the
pond, getting on my belly and scrubbing the container out while under
water
(the container - not me!) in the skimmer box.
LOL! Sorry, but just imagining this.... ;o)
I got my container of Prazi today, and in its defense, at least it has
measurements in tablespoons, for us metric impared. Best of all, I like
the
expiration date... September 2007! I was thinking I'd have to find someone
else who might want to buy some, but I think I'll keep it all with that
expiration date. ~ jan
And then I left the scrubbie
in there, too. The stuff is a mess: SupaVerm is MUCH easier to use. It
doesn't mess with the filter, either (and it doesn't require water
changes).
Just a distinct possibility that it will do in fish other than koi.
Having
tried both - and only having koi - I think I'll stay with Supaverm as
long
as I can get it (which may not be for much longer). Prazi is terribly
expensive. Supaverm is much cheaper. Temperature conditions are the same.
And Supaverm DISSOLVES, at least!

I've been asking some questions regarding Prazi myself, on the KHA
board.
Because of it being pricey, it's probably a good idea to scrape your
fish
to see if they even need such a treatment. One of the nice things about
Prazi is that it won't hurt your filter and one treatment is all that
is
needed as it stays active, as long as you don't dilute it with a water
change. One person with experience said he saw a lot of flashing after
treatment, so be prepared for that.
Who was the one that put it in the blender? What happened?
Regarding Koi-zyme, true it is not a cure, but seems to help a fish
with
small ulcer starts, ime.
