- Treatment for parasites
- Effective against planaria
- Safe for plants and invertebrates
Expel-P from Fritz Aquatics is used as a deworming medication and is intended to treat parasites such as Planaria, Nematodes (like Camallanus Red Worms), Roundworms, Nodular Worms and Hookworms. Symptoms in new and sick fish can include worms visibly protruding from the anus of the fish, wasting, abdominal bloating, disinterest in food, or rapid breathing or gasping. The active ingredient used in Expel P is Levamisole HCl. Expel-P will not harm biological filtration, plants, invertebrates or fish which are not infected.
We recommend using an air stone when treating with this medication.
Expel-P does not treat Cestodes (tapeworms) or Trematodes (flukes). For these parasites, try Fritz ParaCleanse.
Customer Reviews
Highly effective for getting rid of red worms.
Must have in your aquarium medicine.
When fish keeping this is one thing you should have ready and on hand incase your fish gets sick.
I have been purchasing the Fritz medications because they work much better than API. I tried 2 API products because I didn’t have any of my Fritz medication with no results for my fish. So I repurchased the Fritz medications because and within 2 days I I could see a bid difference in my fish. That tells me that I must keep Fritz medications on hand if they get sick again.
When I used this on my 40 gallon tank it obviously made my tank cloudy but I noticed all my plants have crazy biofilm like all over the leaves. is that normal?
Excellent product for roundworms! The only thing better than a quality product like Expel P is the good people and advice offered by Aquarium Co-Op.
Thank you all so much for your guidance helping care for our beloved oscar!
I used it to get rid of red worms. I worked
Great purchase worked for my needs
Purchased Fritz Expel-P after reading review by Aquarium Co-Op. Used as per directions and after three treatments fish were cleared of camallanus worms.
After months of using a different treatment I had no luck getting rid of camallanus worms in my 2 candy koi bettas. Finally someone on Reddit recommended using expel-p and it worked within a few hours of treatment!!! This stuff is amazing and saved me so much heartache!!!
I bought this because my Bolivian ram had camalanus worms. I’m on the second corse of treatment now and I could tell that the first round did cause the worms to die and be excreted.
