Yeah, and sometimes they rub against stuff like they're itchy. That's another sign. Gotta act fast though, parasites spread quick.

Has anyone tried garlic guard to stimulate appetite during treatment? Heard it's a good trick.

Garlic guard's worth a shot. Soaked my betta's food in it, and he went nuts for it. Just don't overfeed while treating, like Fan3 said.
