I just bought 6 female albino bristle nose pleco and one of them is severely emaciated and has this coming out of her anus. Is this a parasite and how should I medicate. I have dog de-worming medicine with fendben in it but never used and all 6 are in the tank. This is the only one looking sick but want to dose the tank now. Please let me know thank you
