I have a 215 gallon tank containing 1 managuense, 1 uropthalmus, 1 tsn cat, 1 jardini. The jardini has visible anchor worms on fins and under jaw, also one in his eye socket! Considering using coppersafe, is this best treatment, will it work? Will this kill all worms in all life stages? Any recommendations or help would be greatly appreciated. Please help.

There is a med called Dimilin, and it works specifically on Anchor worms. You can find it online in places that specialize in Ponds. I tried copper, Prazi, etc, but none of those worked. The Dimilin seemed like it wasn't working at first, but after 3 weeks, the worms were gone. The worms imbedded in the fish will stay there, while the meds go after the free swimmers. Once all the worm eggs are hatched, the worms succumb to the poison.
