Dear All,

I need some help. I have a red green prata that is closing up and it is exposing its teeth. In the centre are fine white-thread like hairs. (2-3cm). They could also pass off as worms as they would be coiling up in the centre of the prata. About 20 pieces are inhabiting my prata right now and it hasnt been opening up. My last two pratas died because of this. I know it is a kind of parasitic infection. Question is what type is this and how to cure it?

Thanks in advance.
