About this product

Hikari PraziPro Parasite Treatment 1 Gallon (73258). An Aquarium Solutions liquid treatment containing praziquantel for susceptible parasitic conditions in ornamental fish. It is designed for freshwater and marine aquariums and ornamental ponds. The one-gallon container is identified by manufacturer part number 73258.

PraziPro is administered as a bath treatment by adding the measured dose directly to the water. Activated carbon, protein skimming, and UV sterilization can reduce its effectiveness and should be removed or switched off during treatment, while other filtration remains running.

Treatment guidelines:

1. Perform a substantial water change before treatment and condition replacement water using a compatible product.

2. Remove activated carbon and switch off protein skimming and UV sterilization. Keep other filtration running.

3. Shake vigorously and dose according to the actual water volume, accounting for displacement by substrate and decorations.

4. Distribute the dose around the aquarium or into the filter for circulation.

5. Follow the current bottle instructions for treatment duration and repeat dosing. Hikari’s recent guidance describes a single treatment lasting 5–7 days, but parasite-specific treatment may require repeated courses.

Do not combine with other medications or treatments without confirming compatibility. Manufacturer sources differ on some dosing and retreatment details, so the current label for item 73258 should govern use. Not for food fish or human use; keep out of reach of children.
