There are several liquid remedies on the market that you can use with a needle syringe and inject the animal, or you can inject with milky kalkwrasser. some like to feed um 1st and when it swells then inject it. if you only have one or two this is the prefered method, if you have more then a natural cure may be in order. some of the butterflys will eat these animals but are also not to be trused in a reef system.
