Hi,
I have a female blue crayfish (electric blue lobster) that I have had for a couple weeks now. I have recently noticed these long stringy white worm looking things that stick out of her leg joints and from underneath her tail and they wave around . I have been trying to figure out and research but I can't find anything that looks like it. Could this just be a part of her body or could it be some kind of parasitic worms? I have not seen her molt yet in the two weeks that I have had her. She started off eating very well but her appetite seems to have slowed down a bit and I also noticed she has starting curling her tail more. I am going to try to upload a picture of the worm-like things. Thanks!
