I can't tell off your picture if it's camallanus worms he's pictures of fish with camallanus worms for comparison at first fish will become bloated as the the parasitc infection become chronic the intestine become compromised and fish can't absorb food leading to a sunken belly recommended treatment for camallanus worms is four course of levamisole active ingredient in expel p once a week so you would treat on week 1 week 2 week 3 week 4 that if you need to treat with fins am not seeing any Reddening to the edges of the fins I would just add some aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 3  gallons and monitor for a week @Guppylover999
