    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    I have an update! I used levamisole medicated flakes and I think that gave things bit of a head start. I noticed the worms protruded more after two days of feeding. Anyone who goes this route, I do not recommend alone, combine it with levamisole HCl. Or use flakes first to get them introduced...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Hello again, I think I can post a quick update! So bad news is, still got the worms, and I miiiiight be noticing the baby mollies with symptoms of them, I'm not sure. It's still early to tell because they're so young. Can an infected mother pass it on to offspring? Anyways, I have medicated...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    I didn't know that about Cory cats! :( my heater is turned all the way down but it seems to be rather warm still. I have a 55gal that's 4ft long that I haven't set up yet as I'm moving this week, but I was hoping to put the mollies in there to grow out because she had babies and they're...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    I tried to upload a video but both attempts failed. I'm not sure where I can upload it to successfully show you. But what I can tell you is that a fourth worm/tendril thing has appeared :( and they all seemed to have grown a millimeter or so. They seem to retreat or retract when shes more...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    I will show you a video when I get home. I have ordered fenbendazole, levamisole, and praziquantel flakes from that website and used priority shipping. And I'm pretty sure it is worms just because of how it looks. At least it seems to be in the earlier stages of showing but I don't know how...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Okay I think she just passed some fecal matter. It looked kind of odd but not worm like much.. But the little two / three line things are back. I caught her and moved her to a small container just for a minute to get a better look and it retracted into her body. And now they're protruding a...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    The reason I think it is the worm is because when I look at it closely, it looks red and splits off into two / what appears to be a third thread :( How does one disassemble an aquarium when it's the only one I have? :s I mean I bought a 55 gal aquarium and will be setting it up maybe in a few...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Female betta. My precious Diana :( Top left where her egg spot is. Looks black in the photo but they're red in real time. I love these guys so much and I'm so ready to give up because this is heart breaking. I learned that the worm transfers from crustaceans and I just bought amano shrimp 10...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Uh oh might be a continuation... Thank you for your reply! I talked to the guys at the store today and they said the hemmorhaging was most likely from her growing so large from birth... which is possible... but then I noticed something else. My female betta has 2 if not a 3rd small red thread...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Thank you so much for the link! I hope they can ship it fast enough to help her! So far she's acting normal and whatnot so maybe I can intervene faster than whatever she has. I see there are two medications on that web page. Do I get both? And do I feed one for 10 days then the other? Or do I...

    Potentially sick molly? I'm not sure?

    Hello all! I'm new to this forum and I will probably be around here more now that I'm into the hobby ^_^ I bought some panda cory cats and 3 died, 2 within the span of a day. While everyone else seems okay, I've noticed a reddish brown discolouration spot behind my molly's left pectoral fin. I...
