are these parasites?

[Squid]

Just wondering, are these parasites on my Xbacks tail?







I'm currently treating with Ocean free 0'Anchor worm and fish lice.

upon looking closely, I can see some fines threadlike things on the tail, not sure if these are parasites, Will Oceanfree O Anchorworm and fish lice be able to get rid of these?

Too difficult to tell based on the picture. If the number of spot remains the same, then it could be due to the genes of the fish.

thanks, My Xbacks tail is a little small, I'm not sure when the tail part started to deform, but i think it only started. But i think there are threadlike worms on the tail?

do they look like fish lice? with a hard shell and crawling around? pic not too clear

From feeding feeders and such they come with lice... add salt and alot of aeration seems fine after awhile

thanks, They don't look like fish lice, they look more like threads at the end of the tail, with spots on the tail.

if WC helps then u should really check your water parameters and think of upgrading your filtration system.
