To hell with Parlimentary procedure! I gotta post this link! I dont care! Forum Rules? Forum Schmules! You cant find poo pics like this anywhere! Well.. some German sites but wrong kind of poo.

If it does turn out to be a tape worm and you do treat with Prazi, double dose of what is listed on the bottle is recommended by most everything Ive read. They say that the dosage listed on the bottle of Prazipro and the like isnt strong enough and that doubling it up wont harm the fish.

Thanks for the link, my closest match would be the third one. The bowl movement was pure white, it was a string and at points it was different thickness.

"Pictures 2 & 3 were believed to have been caused by flagellated protozoan parasites Spironucleus Vortens (in the absence of a scope at the time this was not confirmed)... It was successfully treated with Metronidazole antibiotic."

So Yea, Metro then.

Cool, awesome! I went and got some Metro, the SeaChem kind that comes in the tube. When I opened it there was only a 1/4 of it left. It wouldn't even be enough for one treatment on the tank so I'll have to wait until Sunday when I work.
