If you know you have an internal parasite you're not going to get rid of it w/ simple methods. The typical process is that you medicate the tank, the parasites are expelled and hang out in the substrate and then are re-ingested such that the cycle starts over. Some will say you should repetitively gravel vac the tank but that's too much effort and you're never certain you can say 'that's good enough'.
I take everything out of the tank. Decorations, plants, gravel, all of it. Add a serious UV sterilizer into the secondary side of your filtration and Chernobyl those little devils with a trip or two through my sterilizer. Once that's done I clean whatever else had been in the tank, spritz out the filter and start fresh. I live in cold country so for six months out of the year I can just move it out on the back deck and parasite survival rate has been zero at 0*f. Works like a charm. Just say no to parasites.

What's he looking like now? You've seen my female. I'm hoping her fry get some of the red from their grandfather.
He’s looking decent. I’ll have to get some pics soon to share. His brother I had lost was a lot nicer then him. I’m hoping this male x one of my other blood females throws some traits that his brother had like stronger purple iridescence on the sides and the red like you said. I’ll post in your main HRP thread sometime this month likely.
