Good, you have the temp up to 82f, you will need to keep it at 82 for 3 weeks. I do not know this product "quick cure".
Read this for the worm. Its all i could find to treat anchor worm..
Can you get DIMLIN POWDER ?
LERNEA or ANCHOR WORM:
This parasite can be very troublesome if left unchecked, with the adults reaching 12 mm in length - it is grayish white in colour and attaches itself to the Koi by using hooks, or anchors as the name applies, boring into the skin tissue by first getting under a scale. Only the tail of the anchor worm is visible and looks like a short length of cotton. Anchor Worm needs treating quickly before a secondary infection.
Method of Eradication:-
The only known method of killing this parasite, without killing the Koi is DIMLIN POWDER which can be used safely at any water temperature and has an action of sterilizing the adult and larval stages of this parasite which insures that all eggs produced, after the application of Dimlin, will not hatch.
Method:- Dimlin Powder at the rate of 1 gram per ton of pond water. Measure out the quantity required and mix in a plastic bucket with pond water ensuring that the powder is dissolved then add to the pond in the previous manner. A second dosage may be needed to ensure that the life cycle of the Anchor Worm has been halted. After this second application the dead adults, which will still be hanging from the Koi, can be removed using tweezers but making sure that the hooks, as well as the tail of the Anchor Worm are removed and then apply a proprietary Topical dressing to prevent a secondary infection.
Try and do a water change every day until you start the treatment for the worms, then follow the directions on the medication
