ray poop.

I've also noticed their poop change w/ what they are eating. It is usually a brown but when they eat alot of krill it turns pink lol.

Then that explains a lot for my sabina. Her poop looks like a squiggly/curled up earthworm, but it's pink/orange -- which now I understand why, it's because her diet consists solely of shrimp and krill. So her poop is normal after all I take it?

Hello Sharptooth. I also used the same dewormer product... I had a motoro which stopped eating for 3 days. acting very stressed and very inactive.
I added dewormer, and within 2 days, slimecoat was peeling. After 7 days, he was dead..
The retic was completely unafftected by the treatment.
The shop replaced my Motoro, and I re-dosed the whole tank to be sure to kill all paracites...(a bit risky) but I figured the last motoro was already at the point of no return.
Upon re-dosing, both rays were fine and have been since.
Really hope the pearls making a turnaround. good luck man.

sounds like it to me, that is how my motoros poop looks after a meel or two of krill. Try mixing up her diet though to get some other nutrients in if she will accept other foods.

Have been trying, she refuses everything. Tried redworms, earthworms, salmon, white perch, real crabmeat (both lump and claw), etc. Having the damndest time tracking down any kind of squid but I doubt she'll even eat it. I've tried soaking things in shrimp juice, injecting the shrimp with pellets and that Mazuri shark/ray diet -- she just spits it out if she senses anything in it. :/

I tried that too, about 2 months ago. I swear I have the pickiest ray on Earth.
