metalbug33![]() Hobbyist Posts: 60 Kudos: 36 Votes: 0 Registered: 03-Jun-2004 ![]() ![]() | I have a female betta in a 10 gallon with 2 small dojo loaches (waiting for 55 to cycle). I got her two weeks ago and she went through the 1 week bettamax quarantine before I put her in the 10 gallon. I was watching her today and noticed tiny wormlike things along her fins. There are about 5 of them and they seem to be black and covered in a clear membrane. They are no longer than her fins, and the very end turnes into two points like a shark tail. They arent moving and there are no other larvae or anything icky in the tank. Any idea what they are?? I'll keep trying to get pictures, but my stupid camera wont focus. |
