Hey, I've noticed for awhile that both my female guppies had these little red threads moving in and out of their vent (errm anal opening?) at first I thought it was just normal before they pooed but then I noticed that they moved. I did lots of research and they seem to be Callamanus worms for sure! So I'm really worried, so far the females have been very active like usual and my tank is cycled. My male dosent appear to have them!
So because the thoughts of worms scare me so much can someone PLEASE answer these questions so I can sleep at night!
- Under what circumstances do they live? (Like do I over feed or something?)
- What do they do to my fish?
-Is there any way I can kill them without using the medication?
Thanks soo much, I'm extremely worried!! I do 25% water changes a week (sometimes I'll do a 10% change again just In case) and my tank is well planted with java moss and amazon sword.
