My beardie, Skittles, has tested positive for pinworms.His panacur is coming in the mail, but I have some questions. Hopefully some of y'all have had experience with treatment.
I plan to thoroughly sanitize his tank - should I do that at the end of the treatment, or daily during treatment?
Should I strip his tank during treatment so I can more easily sanitize? I don't want to stress him out on top of antibiotics.
What is the most effective and safe disinfectant? I usually use zoomed wipeout, but I want to make sure I destroy these parasites!!!
Is there anything I need to watch out for, healthwise, while I'm treating him?
ps - other than loose and stinky stool he seems fine. Good appetite, poops every other day, 7 months old, 15 inches long, 325 grams. I just want to be prepared for when the panacur comes in. Skittles is my heart, I hate seeing him upset. The picture attached is just so y'all can admire him! Thanks for any advice, I will really appreciate it.
