chernyi Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 So one of my carbon rilis had a few babies and now the tankis having hydra problems. I'm worried that the hydras will eat them and chemicals might kill them. Did a 50% wc. Anyone has suggestions? Much appreciated, thanks!

repsaJ Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Fenbendazole is absolutely amazing for this. I used the liquid goat dewormer for my ex-hydra with no ill effects to my shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took 4-5 days but they all disappeared and i lost no TBs. Did a big 70% or so water change afterwards.

Wygglz Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 I just checked a US website that has it and they say they will ship internationally if you contact them. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/general.cfm?gid=315 I don't know if that will help you, but it might be worth a try.

eggznfinz Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 As repsaJ mentioned above the liquid goat de wormer is fantastic. Its easy to accurately dose. Hopefully you can get it shipped to Malaysia. I dosed 1ml for a 40 gallon tank. The hydra was barely visible after 20 hours. I forgot to shut off my drip system while medicating and the results were still great. Here a pic of the bottle. This dosing was for a 10% solution bottle.
