Trouble with all these wormers is that there are cestodes (tapeworms) and there are nematodes (Camallanus, Capillaria,...) and they require different drugs (anthelminthics) to kill them.

Some products are not too specific about which ones they kill. That NTLabs stuff contains Fenbendazole, which does tapeworms.

Any that says it does nematodes or mentions Capillaria or Camallanus will work. I only use Waterlife treatments so I use Sterazin for nematodes (white stringy poop).
I don't keep fish, I keep water. Water keeps fish.
