Well if a fish hasn't eaten in awhile the digestive system can shut down/slow down and the fishes intestine begins to slough off cells and creates fecal casts which can look like worms. They are commonly seen in spawning salmon that don't eat as they travel upstream. Once the digestive system has shut down its very hard to get a fish to start eating again (not that this is seamonkey's problem).

Seamonkey, do you feed with garlic?? You may try that as a food enhancer.
