Hello msafdel,

Do you mean how can you treat plecos for parasites in quarantine?

I don't know what medications you have available where you live. But in the USA, I use Proform-C and Prazipro to treat for internal and external parasites when the fish are in quarantine.

There is also a hexamita-medicated food by New Life Spectrum.

Cheers, Eric
