RES not using hind legs, has white slime, what is wrong?

Posted by on November 19, 2006 at 04:12:36:

We acquired a RED who seemed to be doing well but in the last week she has stopped using her rear legs (when resting she extends them behind her but keeps them tucked when in deeper water and struggles to get to the surface). She is eating okay but does have white slime type stuff around her neck & legs. Not sure what is going on -- any help is appreciated!
