So, I have a ten gallon tank and my gold fish in there has anchor
worms. I bought these fizzy tablets (Parasite Clear Tank Buddies by Jungle) and for the life of me, I cannot understand the directions. Here they a "Remove carbon filter during use. Add one tablet to each ten US gallons of Aquarium water. Treatment may be repeated up to two times with 48 hours between treatments and a 25% water change. For anchor worms and fish lice, repeat treamtent three times, using once a week with a 25% water change. " Yeah, maybe it is just me, but I was confused how often I should use it for my anchor worms. So I went onto Jungles website to see if I would have better luck. They say; "Wait 48 hours between treatments. Remove activated carbon. Change 25% of the water before each new treatment. For anchor worms, repeat treatment up to three times, once a week, for three weeks. For fish lice, treat once a week for three to five weeks. DO NOT OVERDOSE. Active ingredients: praziquantel; N-[[(N-Chlorophenyl)amino]carbon 1]-2,6-difluorobenzamide; metronidazole; acriflavine." Now, do I put three tablets in a day? Or do I put a tablet in every 48hrs for three days? Do I put a tablet in every week for three weeks? I think that I put in three tablets once a week for three weeks, but how long should I wait between tablets? If someone could explain this to me without making me feel like that much more of an idiot i would be very grateful. Thanks Flansy |

Change 25% of the water add one tablet wait 48 hours change 25% of the water add one tablet wait 48 hours. See if the anchor worm is gone By this time about one week has passed, so you could start again. Do not put three tablets in at the same time. |
