Trouble in paradise

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wow, horrible to hear this. Myself and one other on this board that I know of ran into this reddish brown worm. I called it a peach color. This worm is what took over my QT tank and wiped my flower out in 2 days time. Still don't know what it was and never saw it again. Probably because I bleached the tank and filters killing anything that was in it. They would actually clumped up on the bottom and they looked like poo at first until I netted some out to find out it was tiny worms. I wish I knew what to tell you. I put these worms in two small baggies and overdosed one with prazi and the other with metro and within 3 days, none of the worms died.
 
wow fishdog that is crazy......i wodner if they are the same worms
 
Wow Kev I am so sorry. That sucks really bad.... can you tell us more about the Marble? Was it WC or CB? Did you get it from an importer or someone else? As sad as this is, it may help some of us raykeepers in the future.

This was very disheartening to hear....please keep us updated.
 
the marble i got was a wc female, I dosed it with prazi and isolated it for a month before bringing it into my main tank. The redish brown worms were at the most 1/4" in length, I must have dosed my tank 4-5 times with prazi to try and get rid of them but it didnt do anything. The panacure is doing the job as far as killing them, and my female leo was pretty stressed after getting raped, she had a huge chunk taken out of her disk. It was most likely just to much for her. My male leo is the most active right now, so thats a good thing, The other motoros for the most part just sit there.

That sucks, guess this makes a case for CB rays. Hopefully the other rays pull through.
