Hey guys! I have recently encountered a problem in my planted breeder tank. My mollie mama looks pregnant constantly even after giving birth and her fry ate coming out with swollen bellies. I caught a video of some sort of white worm in the tank as well. I know they have worms but I can't figure out what kind or how to treat. I treated for cestodes (tapeworms) with API General Cure but have not noticed a difference. The fish are super lively and do not seem to be affected, however, the huge pot bellies couldn't be comfortable for them, I'm sure of that. My LFS employee told me she thinks it's a "harmless" worm and not to worry about it. Meanwhile, my fry are coming out with swollen bellies and looking unnatural. Please help! I am including pictures of the fish as well as the video of the mysterious white worm.
