Fluke-Solve is the result of in-depth research by veterinary fish
experts who have recognised the need for ornamental fish keepers to have
access to high quality veterinary pharmaceutical products which are
both safe and effective.
The active ingredient in Fluke-Solve™
is praziquantel which has been used in a range of fish species for the
control of a variety of fish parasites since the early 1990's, with
specific studies in carp for cestode (tapeworm) infestations as well as
ectoparasites such as monogean trematodes, or flukes.
Extensive trials have shown no toxic effect of Praziquantel on the natural wildlife of the pond.
Although this powder still retains its easy-to-use format (just rip and
tip the sachet into some pond water, stir, and return to the pond) it
now has the added benefit that it can be used at much colder
temperatures – it has been successfully trialled at temperatures as low
as 3°C!! One simple treatment is all that is required for adult flukes
and larvae, with a second dose a couple of weeks later to take care of
any hatching eggs.
