Drat that was my best guess.

Are they moving around at all? Is there still one on the fish?

 

[Florio]

Ya still one on the fish, looks like there's sacks of them in the gravel. They don't move at all. There's none free swimming. Just stuck to stuff or on fish

Nope haha they look like small squiggly lines. Don't move. Seem to attach to surfaces. No free swimming.

Looks scary though.

Hmm, nerite eggs are out.

I'm stuck then, if anyone else may know?

 

[Florio]

Like I almost want to say ich but it's like a worm and only one fish is visibly effected(although he is eating and behaving normally). And their in the gravel for the most part.

No - I agree, ich doesn't sound right.

I can't find anything online that looks the same.

It's not really causing any issues I can notice other than being stuck to its mouth.
