Kauaidoug Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) Just noticed this on my platy who I had thought was pregnant. Acts very healthy. Have no idea how to treat if a worm. Anyone point me in the right direction? 20 gallon tank. I do feed live mosquito larvae as a treat. New to tanking. Help and thanks ahead.

Kirsten Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Just looks like a poop casing to me. I usually only see that when they've been fasted for a little while. She doesn't look skinny to me, but make sure she's getting her share of food at meal time. Her poops should get more food-colored the more she eats. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kauaidoug Posted April 20, 2021 Author Share Posted April 20, 2021 Oh what a relief. I also just noticed her rear end, can't think of name that indicates babies on the way, has become more pronounced. She eats moves and acts normal. Thank you, relieved.

I think the term is "gravid spot." Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
