Hi Friends !

I just found that one of my Largest Dominant Fronts has an anchor worm attached to its tail fin. Please help if there is any medicine that can treat the tank and kill the anchor worms. Please help me, I'm really very upset and afraid...

Kindly advice...
Thanks and Regards
Kush

I would try Clout, however it will melt your plants so you would need to have a hospital treatment tank. For large anchor worms it is easier to remove the anchor worm by hand. Methylene blue won't do much for you. If it is really bad you can try salt baths.
