Certainly makes it more competitive with Fluke M and it works at lower temps' than Fluke M

Fluke Solve is pricier due to the active ingredients within it and the qty of that active ingredient, no doubt if it was flying off the shelves and they were able to buy larger amounts of that ingredient, they'd be able to get a cheaper price and pass that on.

Have to say though, no matter what the price, it works damn well and very quick.

Living where we do and having access to many 'farm vets' we also have access to other far cheaper options, however, having tried fluke solve, they don't come close to it's performance.

Nice to have a product that actually does what it says for a change

Hi Darren I was treating for body and gill flukes I have been told it can stay in the water for up to two weeks so it may be best if you have gill flukes to slow right down on feeding and not do water changes for a while so it can get the flukes as they hatch, I only treated once and all scrapes have been clear.
