Three days ago my son noticed something hanging off the bottom of my opaline gourami. It was worm-like, about an inch long, pinkish in color coming from between the pectoral barbs, not the rear of the fish. I went to grab my phone to take a photo and when I got back, it was gone. I've searched the bottom of the tank and didn't see it anywhere and I haven't seen it happen since. It's a 29g tank with the opaline and an angelfish, both of which I've had for a year and a half along with a dwarf gourami we picked up six months ago. We haven't seen this in the other two fish and all three have healthy appetites.
Looking around, the only thing I've come up with could be camallanus worms. I don't have any local fish stores, only Petsmart and Petco and Petsmart only had API General Cure which I'm currently dosing. This is my possibly sick fish and I'm not sure what else to do at this point so I'm asking for suggestions.
I have a ten gallon I can set up as a quarantine but, since I've had all of the fish together this long, I can't imagine only one would be infected. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
