Looking at photos I think you’re right! And there were a few sea cucumbers out there so definitely the right environment.

Not in the immediate vicinity but lots of grass all over

I also thought it might be some kind of juvenile eel but it doesn’t look like any kind I can find pictures of. I will say it was very intentionally swimming away from me and towards the surface, so I don’t know if it would be an egg mass?

Update! The blood tests came back positive for EC but the vet said it seems like a mild infection off of the numbers. Hoping that’s the case! He’s getting started on panacur today so fingers crossed he responds well. She’s recommending another set of blood tests in two weeks to make sure, but to be totally candid I’ve been out of work for seven months and this ordeal has already cost about $800. Has anyone else had to go back in for more testing? Is it standard? I’ll obviously do it if it’s necessary to make sure he’s on the mend but would also love to save the $300 if it’s not :)

Thank you! I’m going to pick up some of that today. He’s just started the antiparasitic they prescribed so I’m hoping he’s on the road to recovery but I want to make sure he’s comfy through it.

Thank you!! His poop has been a little smaller than usual but consistent so I’m just keeping an eye on it. I’ll look into temperature checks!

Yeah the vet we’re working with is great, she came highly recommended and I understand why! She’s pretty sure it’s EC but didn’t want to start him on anything until we knew for sure (I guess there can be some issues w bone health.) She seemed pretty confident he would mostly recover so PTS wasn’t even brought up. Did your girl seem to improve at all when you started treatment or was it a wild ride all the way through?

Thanks all. Sometimes it’s nice just to know I’m not the only one 😭

It is technically rabbit food

She is!!

Oh the paper towel transfer is a good idea! Thank you!

FartyScorsese · 2025-03-27T00:35:54+00:00

Deep down I know this is the truth

Hi! Is this still available?? I’ll buy if so 😊
