Sick Angelfish...

[ColemAnthony1]

Hey all. So I have (had) 5 angelfish in a 60 gallon tank and they were living happily for 4ish months and I had been feeding them a variety of foods including earthworms from my feed store. Then I made the mistake of buying a tub of worms from Walmart and now I think that Capillaria is spreading around. I've lost one red koi angelfish and two others have lost their appetite... They stop eating and poop out a thin clear/white. They lose interest in everything and hang near the top of the tank. I'm not positive that Capillaria is the one to blame or if earthworms can carry this parasite. Whatever it is, it's only affecting my angels. All other fish are happy and healthy. Anybody have any information on how this parasite spreads, where it comes from, and treatment?
Please help.
-Wade.

Are you seeing any worms?

Prazi and metro are fairly safe together and you could try that.

The metro will also cover bacterial infections. How quick did they die and are you seeing any recovery now back into previous feed?
