Ingredients:

Levamisole HCL.

Compatibility

What it treats: roundworms. Levamisole HCl, against parasitic nematodes — Capillaria, Camallanus, pentastomes, acanthocephalans, discus maggot. The signs DiscusX list are red worms protruding from the anus, lethargy, and nodules or masses in the skin or muscle. In most cases the worms are not visible at all and the infection is only confirmed by looking at the fish's faeces under a microscope.

What it does not treat: flatworms. DiscusX are explicit — for flukes and tapeworms you need Fluke X instead.

Two dose rates, and the difference is large. The standard rate is 1 g per 500 litres. For Camallanus — the red worms hanging from the anus — DiscusX call for 1 g per 75 litres, which is nearly seven times stronger. Identify what you are treating before you dose.

Bath or medicated food. DiscusX state it can be used either as a water bath or made up into medicated feed.

The schedule is unusual: two days, then a 12-day gap, then repeat. Levamisole paralyses the worms rather than killing eggs, so the second course is what catches the next generation. Skipping it is the most common reason a nematode infestation comes back.

Biological filter. DiscusX make no claim either way for Wormer X, unlike Fluke X, where they state explicitly that the filter is unaffected. Treat that silence as silence: if you are dosing a display tank, watch your ammonia, and follow their standing advice to run a conditioner that binds chlorine and ammonia both.

Invertebrates. DiscusX publish nothing about shrimp, snails or other invertebrates for any of their treatments. If you keep them, treat the fish in a separate hospital tank rather than dosing the display — that is the only answer we can give you honestly, and it is also the answer that does not cost you a shrimp colony.

Alongside the treatment. DiscusX recommend adding salt at 1–2 g per litre during the course. They also ask that you run a water conditioner that binds and neutralises both chlorine and ammonia — not just a dechlorinator — because you will be changing large volumes of water daily and, in some cases, working without a mature filter.

Ornamental fish only. Not for human consumption, and not for fish or animals intended for human consumption. Keep out of reach of children and pets.

Storage: cool room temperature, dry. DiscusX specifically say not in the fridge — in a humid climate that causes condensation on and inside the package, and this is a powder.
