desease

[McEve]

Hi,

I just brought one of my angels down to my lfs, as he didn't feed and had a
white thin something hanging out from his rectal opening. They said he had
nematomia or something similar... problem is I can't remember the exact
name. Anybody know which desease this is? The fish did not get thin or show
any outer sign of illness, just fretting and refusing to feed.

Sounds like it could have been internal worms. Is that what they were talking
about (NetMax, anyone?).

Nematode infestations generally exhibit *red* worms, but I've never dealt
with it in my own tanks.

Long stringy feces or..? Using the URLs below, match your symptoms with
their prognosis. I'm off duty ;~)

Whoops, my apologies for wasting time. These web sites just won't stay
still.

These are good (today ;~), starting with the first which relates to the
OP's question.
