      Is this anchor worm part II (3 weeks later)

      Dear All!

      Had some issue three weeks ago with anchor worm. First treated the fish in quarantine, but after return to the pond the problem came back, so decided to treat the pond with Arugol/Sera quote
      ... I found and ordered this:
      sera med Professional Arugol:

      PondCure diseasesCare
      Well tolerated, highly concentrated water conditioner for the quick and complete removal of parasitic crustaceans such as fish lice (Argulus), anchor worms, crustaceans affecting the gills, parasitic isopods and small crustaceans (that may serve as intermediate hosts for other parasites) that frequently occur in ponds.
      Residues are broken down biologically. – A water change is not necessary.

      Attention: Other invertebrates such as snails, clams, crayfish and insect (larvae) do not tolerate the treatment. Amphibians and plants are not affected by the treatment. Not much other choices, Dimillin I cannot find in Europe -active ingredients: 10mg Emamectinbenzonat,Marcrogol300, Propylencarbonat,Denatoniumbenzonat
      unquote

      Treatment is with UV closed three days, no water changes and to be repeated after three weeks. Now, I see the fish which had them originally, much worse, looks like frayed behind his orange scales with a bit of blood. What do you think? It is possible to treat in a bath in the meantime or just to wait, until they fall off. The other fish are all good, only one has a foggy eye, no clue what this could be...
      Measurements taken three days after treatment read:
      NH4 0.05,No2 0.05, NO3>1,GH 6, PH 7.8,KH 4, water temperature 25 degrees Celsius
      Thank you so much for your thoughts!
