A flat disk-shaped arthropod parasite with many legs.
On the fish itself it is barely noticeable only as a flat, dull colored bump that you may just think is a part of the fish, unless you see the legs themselves or the disk moving around on the body. |
The worm can be physically removed, but will cause great stress to the fish, and must be done carefully.
The wound should be cleaned afterwords. |
