Anyway she's begging for food, swimming, blowing sand, goes into hunting mode when she see's one of the ghost shrimp that's now living in her tank. Apparently she still can't catch them. When I try to feed her an earthworm she swims away like the worm is going to eat her.
Other than that she's acting pretty normal and back to her old self. The only thing she's not doing (that she did before this all started)
she's not playing give mommy a heart attack when I bury myself in the sand and she can't find me.
I put the gel-tek on her food again this morning then fed it to her. She ate it up. No problem. It says feed twice a day with gel-tek so tonight I'll feed her another small portion. She was mad at me earlier this morning, she wanted more food but I didn't give in. I just told her she would have to wait until I get home.
well, that's good that she's acting normal for you....then i guess she just had to give out a big ugly poo....tell me who hasn't had to do that every now and then....sheeesh....look at all she's been thru....she's probably more relaxed than she has been in weeks....

Yes it's offical, Annabelle still has some worm. There's about 3 inches coming out of her right now. I was trying to check her while she was under the long. I tried to move her out, she spun around and bit my pinky finger!
This is the first time she has ever bit me. Needless to say I was shocked! She picked at her food this morning so my guess is that the worm is dying and it's messing with her tummy again. I'll be treating her with the meds again tonight. She picked enough at her food that I believe she got enough meds this morning so tonight I'll treat her again and see how it goes.

This set of worms dosen't look like the first tapeworm. At least not to me. I guess it could be the same but it looks different this time. Maybe it's just a smaller version of the tapeworm.

Today is day 5 of treating with ultra cure, yesterday morning and last night she was a bit lethagic. Yesterday morning she barley ate her food. More like picked at it. Last night she ate well but was laying on a log all night. This morning she's more energenic and ate all her medicated food and was looking for more. Tonight will be her last treatement. Last night I didn't see any signs of worm, this morning she had about 3 inches of worm coming from her anus. After tonights feeding I'll give her a week to recover and treat her again.

I'm sure it's possible, like with other meds if you don't treat the full treatment it may become resistant. I'm not 100% sure about it.
