The flukes are external parasites, so it makes sense to treat the water and not the insides of the fish. Probably not toxic to the fish, but maybe less effective.:badidea:

not best way to treat for common gill fluke on our gold fish I think.. But i understand why he try. because for dog and cat prazi is given in food to kill INTERNAL parasites like tape worm etc. so he do same for his fish. Maybe work as he might have this kind of parasite?

You'd kill the flukes by adding that much prazi to the tank.

What ever the equation as long as prazi is involved the flukes lose.

I was never able to make prazi work.
Why wouldn't you guys use something like Fluke Tabs?
