Parasite in Leo/hen tank Help Quick!!!

[abortedsoul]

That very well could be just an earthworm, but it does look rather nasty; if I saw that in one of my tanks I would sh*t a chicken.

Whatever is wrong, I hope you figure it out! I will be looking online to see if any parasites match this one. I'm not the best source, but if there is anything at all I can do let me know!

I'd guess it came in with the live blackworms. They've often got all sorts of stuff mixed in with them. Looks almost like a flatworm, but probably just a type of aquatic annelid (segmented worm).

could have been in w the blackworms????

There is alot of odd things that come in with the black worms..........

i wouldnt worry to much like everyone said it probably came with the blackworms
u could dose with anchors away and that will kill any remaining its ray safe

 

[RARE AFISHINADO]

anchors away only kills parasites with chitineous exoskeletons Like anchor worm and fish lice etc the active ingredient is dimilin and it inhibits the parasites from forming a shell once they shed molt etc.
