Mine have taken fish as well, a shallow dish helps, but they don't perfer them and will only go after them if they are really hungry. I have always treated any new imports with panacur and flagyl, both are pretty easy on the stomach flora compared to other dewormers. I never had a problem result from it, but I have had perfectly heathy looking snakes die that weren't dewormed only to find serious parasite loads upon necropsy. If you really want to be safe, then take a stool sample to a vet to be checked out first. If you wait for symptoms it will be too late.
