DeWorming I: The new base formula for this flake is our Freshwater Fish Flake Food with added garlic. We've demonstrated the effectiveness of garlic in dealing with internal nematodes (roundworms) in our own experiments. The combination of a natural de-wormer along with a very effective drug gives your fish their best chance. One feeding of this food exclusively, every other day for 5 total feedings will give the proper dosage. Feed the fish only once on the day of the treatment at the end of the day. They should be kept hungry, so they will eat vigorously. Repeat the full treatment after 3 weeks.
Active ingredient: fenben dazole. This med is only slightly water-soluble, so it will still be quite effective if not eaten immediately. The Proper Feeding of Medi-cated Fish Food is a must-read. Also contains beta-glucan for immune boosting. We recommend feeding our Prevent & Recover Fish Flake Food for 1 week after the medicated feeding is discontinued. For ornamental fish use only.
DeWorming II: The medication base of this flake is geared towards internal cestodes and flatworms. We even have found it to be very effective at eliminating gill flukes. It is also made with our Freshwater Fish Flake Food with added garlic for additional protection. Give one feeding of this fish food exclusively, every day for 5-7 total feedings. Feed the fish only once each day of the treatment at the end of the day. They should be kept hungry, so they will eat vigorously.
Active ingredient: prazi quantel. This is only slightly water-soluble, so this will still be quite effective if not eaten immediately. The Proper Feeding of Medi-cated Fish Food is a must-read. Also contains beta-glucan for immune boosting. We recommend feeding our Prevent & Recover Fish Flake Food for 1 week after the medicated feeding is discontinued. For ornamental fish use only.
DeWorm 3: A garlic-based flake that is designed to kill nematodes (capillaria, camallanus, etc). It targets parasites similar to the ones our first De-worming Flake is designed for, but it works in a totally different manner. It is good to alternate medication types occasionally to help prevent the development of worms resistant to the one medication. This food should be fed exclusively, once each day for two days. Feed the fish only once each day of the treatment at the end of the day. They should be kept hungry, so they will eat vigorously. Repeat the full treatment two more times, 2-3 weeks apart.
Active ingredient: levam isole HCL. Also contains beta-glucan for immune boosting. This is water-soluble, so the Proper Feeding of Medi-cated Fish Food is a must-read. We recommend feeding our Prevent & Recover Fish Flake Food for 1 week after the medicated feeding is discontinued. For ornamental fish use only.

Just got these to have on hand, per advice of other fishkeepers, so I haven't used them yet, BUT the service was beyond excellent and quick - arrived before my Amazon prime orders ordered on the same day!!!!! Thanks.
They have the most beautiful angelfish, although expensive. My fish like the flakes and pellets. The food is a good price because you can buy in bulk quantity. I will be buying most of my fish food from them in the future.
😁😁
My experience with all the products have been very good. Shipping is good as well.
Only thing I can say is I would love if they would make some slow sinking pellets. This would keep my filters clean. The flake gets sucked into my canister filters. Although I keep pre filter sponges on them. I do need to clean them much more often.
Also the less aggressive fish would have more opportunity to access the food.
I understand with the medicated foods you could only do it with a select few.
If they had pellet or stick food , I would purchase all my foods and meds here.
My fish had to be held off flake for 5 full days before they would eat the deworming flake. After that it was 👍!

Don't be fooled into thinking a fish food is good just because fish readily eat it. Children prefer candy over broccoli, but it doesn't mean that candy is better for them. A taste preference can easily be acquired through hunger. Getting them to prefer foods that are also very good for them, is the trick. Even though it's not always needed, our way of getting them to develop a taste for a new food, works. It is described below.
Fish won't eat their new food? When switching to a new fish food, we highly recommend getting the fish very hungry. Often times, fish become accustomed to a particular fish food and will not eat another, no matter how good it is for them. When introducing a new food, we usually don't feed the fish for 24-48 hours, depending on the size of the fish, and then offer only one bite per fish (key to success). Remove food after 1 minute if uneaten. Do this every few hours. It may take several days, especially for larger fish that have become accustomed to other fish foods. Don't worry, fish can easily and safely go much longer than this without food. Allowing the food to sit uneaten in the tank for even a couple hours can turn them off to the food permanently. If you don't give in, this method works every time.
Using this technique, you can quickly get most fish to eat a new food like ravenous piranha without much effort. In fact, we have to be careful feeding, because they often jump out of the tank in their feeding frenzy. Watch some of our fish feeding in the below video. Keep in mind, they were first introduced to these fish foods using this technique.
