callumsikone Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Was taking out some old zuccini in my calico/calico longfin tank and there was a small cluster of worms on the glass bottom of the tank. Look similar to blood worms? Anyone have any idea what these are? Thanks Callum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankenstrat Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 camallanus worms most likely if they looked like blood worms.they can be seen in more severe cases hanging out the buM hole of the fish.ive had them before and were fairly easily treatable with a bird wormer.there can be more info on camallanus worms found on pleco planet.

callumsikone Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 If I see any more will do, I havn't noticed any fish that look unhealthy and they were under the zuccini which makes me think they were feeding on that, will keep an extra eye out thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
