User error…
I want to start by first saying the negative reviews for this product are complete crap. First, mine was clear when I got it… not pink. My fish were showing signs of flukes. Their behavior changed and even their coloration was off. My yellow tang was almost white and my trigger stay lodged in the rocks.. if he did come out he would dart around the tank… almost in a panic state. I followed the instructions… water change followed by skimmer off and any carbon out of the sump. I made sure my measurements were exactly as the bottle recommended. It took 3 of my measuring cups to treat the tank.. I have a powerhead on each side, so one dose on each side and the final in the sump. I kept the lights off and let it go. It’s been one day and I can tell you that the fish are 100% acting normal. Their color is back, no more rubbing on the sand or head shaking. My coral is doing just fine. All crabs and shrimp are fine. I will probably wait another couple days then change the water and turn on the skimmer. If you’ve used this product and things in your tank are dying I am sorry to hear that. Either your fish were sick beyond saving or something went wrong. I can speak from my experience… worked for sure.. perhaps consider buying from BRS if you worry about a bad batch from amazon.

A Must For Your Fish’s Medicine Cabinet!!!
I bought this Prazipro when I noticed 2 of my Mollie fish were VERY skinny. I wasn’t sure what was wrong with them. The fish were still eating and swimming around with the other fish but just kept losing weight. I thought maybe they had tapeworms so I ordered this Prazipro. I removed the carbon from my filter before treating the tank. I started with a 60% water change and added the first dose. I dosed for 7 days and then did another 60% water change. I waited 5 days and then repeated the whole process again for 7 more days to kill any eggs that might of hatched. The two fish started to look a little better. After about a month I couldn’t even tell which two fish were the skinny ones. This treatment process didn’t seem to bother my other fish at all. The tank is a 75 gallon with Mollies, Dwarf Gouramis, Giant Danios, Cory cats, and Penguin Tetras. All in a well established tank with a Fluval FX6 Canister filter that has been running for 2 years now.This Prazipro can be used in freshwater, marine tanks and in ponds. The bottle states it treats Flukes, Tapeworms, Flatworms and turbellarians. This makes Prazipro a great dewormer. My biological filter was not compromised at all from using this product for 2 back to back treatment periods. My ammonia and nitrite levels remained at 0ppm and my nitrate remained at 20ppm. I haven’t needed to buy any new fish in a long time but when I do, I will be dosing the tank with this prazipro as a preventative. This product is a clear pink color and does not stain the tank or cause any color changes in the water. My aquarium remained clear throughout the process. If this review was helpful to you in any way, please let me know by clicking on helpful. Thank you so much!! 🙂

I had to give it 5 stars
I have to give this product 5 stars. I had a Discus feeling under the weather. I would do so many water changes and he would always be in the same corner tail up. I tried everything just to keep it chemical free but with no sucess. I brought the Prazipro to give it a try just because I didn’t want to try others that make your whole tank water yellow. The next day of using the product the Discus that has been in this corner for 2 months was creeping out and started to eat. I was so amazed that I followed the directions after the first dose the next one would be in 7 days and I did this. Now my Discus that I thought was going to be a goner is up and about the tank eating with the rest of the Discus and finally getting back its color. To sum it up if you don’t want to or you don’t have a extra tank or you just don’t want to go thru the trouble of getting your whole tank yellow because everything you have in your tank will turn yellow I would try this product first it worked for me. It’s clear and stays clear and the good thing about this product is that you can use it as a preventive measure. Like I say in all my reviews shop amazon it will save you money than your LPS.

Like Tears of the Unicorn
This stuff is amazing! And just in case you don’t want to read my whole review… if you just bought a puffer of any sort –especially those Walmart Green Spotted Puffers… GET THIS and follow the instructions exactly–even if they don’t look “sick”. Your results will be worth the price. Puffers do not breed in captivity and get internal parasites in the wild. This will get rid of that with ease and make the likeihood of reaching adulthood greater. I have 3 tanks with puffers and they all got treated first thing when I purchased them, and is perfect for your med tank. My most glorious result is my Fahaka Puffer. We recently bought this emaciated guy who was like a stick–or rather, more like a tad pole, huge head, no body weight. He didn’t have any use of his caudal/anal fins and kind of just shook side to side to get around and mostly stayed on the bottom. 3 weeks with PraziPro every 3-6 days and he has gained a lot of weight, uses his fins and doesn’t look like an old man anymore. He’s put on at least 50% more weight with a balanced diet. My GSP also got prazi and is as big as I’ve ever seen a Walmart puffer get. Everyone says they die right away, but if you TREAT THEIR PARASITES and keep good water conditions (marine brackish), he will thrive. Lastly, my little dwarf puffer, he got this too. He’s a riot to watch chase the blood worms and ghost shrimp, he used to sit at the bottom also, but now picks on a rams horn double his size. Get this, get this, EVEN IF THEY DON’T LOOK SICK. A lot of puffers can host parasites without looking ill until it is too late. Save yourself the pain and get rid of them immediately!
