Hi all,

what do you use to fight anchor worms in your recently purchased wild stock.

Have you ever tried SERA med Professional Argulol?

Best regards

I think organophosphate are manually removal are suggested

Damage to the skin integrity needs to be prophylatically anaged after manual removal

I think hypertonic saline can lead to less truamatic detacment... though make sure you are aware of osmotic shock to the host fish and how to manage before using strong saline dips
