Raw carrots are good for humans (old granies cure) pulp some raw carrot and put a very small amount in the tank. Also some cooked green peas is also good for their gut system. At a guess I would say there are several products on the market but you would have to know which worm the fish has. Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do. I VOTE DO YOU if not WHY NOT? VOTE NOW VOTE NOW

I had a spare cat tablet somewhere but as I cannot find it looks that I may have to do another on line purchase.
