what is wrong with my bichr

[l3y3w2]

my polypterus has this big bump on his stomach and i didn't feed him anything so far . its really creepy is it due to stress ?

 

[lix.ma14]

it might be a paracetic worm in it's stomach/intestines. if you can see a bit of a darker shader, suspitiously like a worm or a bloody anus (no kidding), then your bichir definatly has worms paracites! have you been feeder him live feeder fish. Not a good idea!

Are there any gravels in your tank?

 

[markwright]

did he eat any of the smaller fish if you have any?
