Hikari Prazipro Parasite Treatment 16oz

Product details

Hikari Prazipro Parasite Treatment 16oz (73256) is a ready-to-use liquid concentrate designed to help control unwanted parasites in pond, freshwater, and marine aquarium systems. It is used when praziquantel-susceptible disease conditions are suspected or parasites are noticed, and it can also be used as a preventative in systems where parasites are likely.

Features:

• Ready-to-use liquid concentrate for hobby use
• Treats parasites including flukes, tapeworms, flatworms, and turbellarians (as indicated by the product info)
• Uses a proven active ingredient with a long safety history
• Designed to avoid negative impact on biological filtration when used as directed
• Include guidance for safe use: remove activated carbon, stop foam-fractionation (protein skimming), and avoid UV sterilization while treating
• Treatment can be repeated if needed (up to once every 3 days), as many parasites have multi-week life cycles
