worms...

[Dangerdoll]

spotted a couple worms on my lone ram in the tank.... and have been looking for 3 days as to just what it is. Of course, the first assumption is the common anchoir work... but these don't resemble them. These worms are curly. I don't have a pic here but I do at home and will post that later on. Just thought maybe a descroption wold help. The worms (there are a few) are on it's tail, and sides. I never would have known they were there if I didn't zoom into the pic I took of him... so far I've been treating with coppersafe and using a medicated food...... Dose anyone have any ideas?

yes, they look like parasitic nematodes to me but i'd need a zoom scope to be certain. i gotta tell you, if i'm right this is pretty rare.

looking at it, it looks pretty darn close, I wish I would have known this before though so I could have looked at other meds. I will look to see what I have and work from there. Thanks blue ;)
