outbreaks of gill flukes can be treated with copper- or formalin-based remedies. Great care should be taken, as these treatments can be very harmful to invertebrates and even some fish.

Its not a good idea to mix meds. There are some brands like mardel that makes their meds to work together but overall read the manufacturers instructions.
