- CAMALLANUS WORMS: These DEADLY PARASITES Came Back!
A few years ago my 29 gallon aquarium got camallanus worms and it was a DISASTER! Unfortunately, I found these worms AGAIN in 2 of my aquariums.

What is your go-to medication if something is wrong in your aquarium?

Canada has band all medication that has any sort of antibiotic in it, I use aquarium salt and if needed for internal parasites I use garlic guard and most times this works but I have never had to deal with camallanus worms.
@@cannonfishkeeping3713 You can order it still LOL.
Usually salt, but im still new here
Thank you for the tips to deal with this ordeal. Could you please provide a link where to get this Fenbendazole and Levamisole?
Best of luck Anthony, I’ve been battling a few problems recently too, specifically some dropsy, lost my two golden rams to it. Your video about kanamycin really helped me a lot.
Thank you! Good luck to you too! Glad to hear my video helped you out! 👍🏼
They found the brown worm?
These are the most horrible, disgusting, nasty worms in the world. I had them in an Oscar, then cross contamination and lost a Betta. I finally got rid of them so I purchased my 'bucket list fish' - a pair of Betta Macrostomas and guess what... camallanus worms I am now treating all 12 tanks just in case.
Ugh that’s the worst man! Literally worse case scenario! People who’ve never had camallanus don’t truly know how terrible, dangerous, and nerve racking they can be! I’m going to end up treating all the tanks too once I monitor them a little more
Thanks for the info. Never knew about this
Yeahhhh it’s pretty bad! I’ll be coming out with some updates on it as I get a handle on things. Hopefully you NEVER come across it!
Great pick up , yes Global very nice and clean good prices to
😱😱😱 that’s scary bro, keep us updated.
You know I will! 🤙🏼
Here’s my issue with being Canadian, they have banned all medications so how do people here in Canada get rid of this parasite? And what are some more signs of this parasite?
I wish I had a better answer for you but I really don’t know 😰 Maybe a veterinarian can prescribe you something? Other than the red worms, the fish may stop eating or sit on the bottom or the aquarium. May have a sunken stomach too.
They will group together and sit motionless ... less movement in tank .. in fact hardly any .. was my first sign
EBay is a good idea
O damn man !!! Thats how I was introduced to u when I got it years ago it wiped out all my angels!! I ended up using dog dewormer with the fen benzoyl or however you spell it . But I had to crush em up and and make like a slurry and soaked their food in it and add it to the water and it worked after I lost 5 koi angels! Good luck buddy
As unfortunate as camallanus is, I’m glad it introduced you to my channel! 🤙🏼 Glad you were also able to get rid of the worms in your tanks. Thanks for the good wishes! 👍🏼
Never had em and never want to. Is it wise to medicate for these preventively? During quarantine.
Yes! I do that now after having them twice!
Is expel p reef safe ?
Most meds dont touch this worm. You have to put the fish in a bare bottom and treat them with fenbendazole which paralyzes the worm and then vacuum out the bottom of the tank very regularly.
Extremist view. I killed the worms very easily also treat the entire tank because if one fish is infected you gotta guess they all r
@@Riley095what did you do?
Do any of your commenters know what this looks like in guppies? I have a female with a bulging vent and the only thing I can find is this video and a few sources online that speak of "red worm parasites" -I have fought about 2 cases of dropsy unsuccessfully and now currently treating for ich (I have treated ich successfully before) with heat,salt,and some kordon's rapid cure that fixes the ich but the bulging vent has me very concerned!!!! Can someone give me some tips or advice?
But how can i treat that?????
I’m subscribing so I can learn more about these worms I’ve Ben fighting them api general cure for 6 weeks now I need more ! I’ve only lost two so far but the worms r BAD !!!
Thanks for subscribing! Unfortunately General Cure will have no effect on these parasites. You’ll need to use something like levamisole or fenbendazole to get rid of these parasites! They’re a resilient parasite, but nothing we can’t handle! 👍🏼💪🏼
I just lost my battle pretty much to these worms so I guess all I can do now is start over. Do you think that bleach will kill them 100%? I always use it to disinfect but these things are hardy. Then again bleach is supposed to kill 99.9% of germs so idk. Do you think it’ll work? Should I throw it all away including the decor?
If you bleach everything you should be good to go! Make sure you disinfect all of your equipment as well!
Buy a big thing of paracleanse from aquarium coop and use it on all new fish and on these tanks here.
Paracleanse uses metronidazole and prazinquantal which most strains of camallanus worms are completely immune to sadly
Have you tried General cure for parasites
Yes! I quarantine all of my fish for a minimum of 4 weeks. I treat them all with bacterial and fungal medication as well as General Cure, which contains both metro and prazi. Neither of those are effective to these specific parasites 😥
@@LongIslandFishGuy thanks for that info 👍
🙏🙏🙏🐠🐡🐟
I’m so so sad. I thought my female balloon Molly was pregnant. My other Molly is an orange male, so I saw the worms protruding from her butt and thought it was a fry fin that was just stuck. But I’m almost positive by now since she hasn’t birthed anything that it’s calamanus worms. She hasn’t died and she’s very active and eats a lot, but I know it’s fate and I’m so sad for her
Good luck! 🙏🏼
Thought you quarantine everything
I do! For a minimum of 4 weeks and the fish get treated with external and internal meds. Only thing that can kill or handle the camallanus are levamisole or fenbendazole, neither of which are in my current QT process (for now) and the worms can take 3-6 weeks to actually show in the fish’s vent. Typically by the time you see the red worms, the infestation is pretty bad for the fish.
I think that guy needs a bigger hide or more hides 😃
I feel your pain. I know this is an old video but I'm going through tank treatments for red worms right now and yeah.... So discouraging
All my tadpoles died today because of these disgusting creatures
Killed nearly all my fish. Working on my own documentation of the process
Read the name! It’s not pronounced callumanus.
First one🎉
Hey man, you dropped this 🏆
@@LongIslandFishGuy and u drop this 👑
YASSSSSS
Next time get some eSHa -ndx 😉
I have that arriving today lost a beautiful big angel to these worms. I have a heavily planted tank no other tank will eesha still work providing I follow instructions because with sand nutri base root tabs loads of plants and lots of fish in 5ft tank I can't strip it all
