Hi guys~
I noticed today that one spot of feces of my new Puget had a pink/redish spot in it along with the white urates. I looked further in around in the tank and found several more like this. It looks very much like fish that I have been feeding it (salmon) just in a much smaller piece. She (if it even is a she- it looks much more like the size and color of the males in the pictures I've looked up) has been eating well and today ate many small rosy minnows with much gusto. While I was cleaning out her tank I saw her poop and it was the same pink with white, and a small white worm, ew ew ew. Now the worm wasn't really much surprise, from what I've heard about these pugets I expected as much, and we have a vet appt coming up soon. But the pink concerns me. Could this be caused by the worms? Or does salmon normally come out pink the other end?? She had normal dark feces right when I got her and after eating the first group of minnows I offered. Any experience with this?
