What do I do? How can I ensure the tank is healthy after this?

Do a google search for "camallanus". There are tons of info about this
parasite on the web.

No offence, but you might want to learn how to use the search engines.

In brief, the recommended active substances are Levamisol,
Fenbendazol. See e.g. http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/BODY_FA091
