      Worms!!!!!!!!!

      Ok so I started feeding Jungle Medicated food yesterday. I have seen white worms here and there in the pond...they looked like tapes. So I started food yesterday and this eve Sally, the one with all the issues is pooping worms! EWWWWW here is a pic I think they are tapeworms. I have ordered the prazi for the flukes will this also treat for the worms along with the food or is something else better?

      No doubt!!! Clearly my fault! I wish i could have hired somebody to tend to them during my battle but my medical was off the charts and could not afford to. I will get them straight. Lice seems to be gone and still no flashing. I'm surprised since I found flukes. They must not be that bad? But still they are about to be nuked!!! Little suckers!

      Yeah those look like tapeworms, I didn't think fish got tapeworms but I guess anything with a digestive track can get them...

      Gheez koi are already hungry little monsters, couldn't imagine trying to feed one with a tape worm!

      I think you've found more "things" in a week than I've seen in 8 years. And that's on my fish and many pond calls I've made over the years. Hope you get them all.

      There maybe one more treatment to clear the secondary infections that occur after a bad case of lice and flukes, but the main thing is you found the root cause.
