I strongly, strongly, strongly (I can't emphasize this enough) recommend against
fenbendazole. I killed at least 43 fish using half the dosage recommended by wkndracer. I had mistaken
flubendazole for the same as
fenbendazole. You can see the damage here (
http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/1342425-post1341.html), how it doesn't disolve and also if you continue reading (back up a few pages for the beginning of the deaths), you'll see that it happened within hours and the deaths didn't stop for days. I lost almost everyone of my fish due to using this.
To the OP, that does look at lot like internal parasites, but the sunken stomach makes me worried that it's TB. Not to be gross, but how is their poop? Is it white and stringy (a good sign of pests) or is it normal looking?
