Questions.

Big L pig and poultry wormer & Avitrol plus tablet form .

when treating your tanks for any form of worms does anyone recommend anything different.

With my setup being 3x four foot tanks divide into 3 sections and one 3ft sump my water capacity through all tanks is 805Litres so to dose my tanks
With big L I have worked out I need 115ml for the whole setup but what gets me a little freaked out if I was to use avitrol I would need 80 tablets as its 1 tablet per 10litres is this correct !
I'm about to do my routinely treatment but what know about the avitrol if dosage is right or maybe there's something else better we know about ?

Aquotix have an internal parasite medication that will treat for all worm types (not just nematodes that Big L treats)

It is also being used in shrimp tanks to treat planaria so it is totally harmless to fish, plants and shrimp.

You can order it from our online store - PM me if you are interested....

I got a small tub of their wormer a few months ago and have treated my 450L 4 times and I still have quite a bit left so there should be enough to treat your 1500. I was also supprised at how cheap it was (especially compared to other products)
