Is my rabbit ok?

I just got a baby rabbit, it has started to get diarrea. Is this a sign of wet tail? Can rabbits get wet tail? Does anyone have any advice?
Answers:
You MUST take your rabbit to a vet to be treated. Wet-tail occurs in hamsters and over-the-counter treatments are useless and can be potentially harmful.
This quote is from the first link below:
"True diarrhea is more common in baby rabbits. One of the most common causes is coccidia [an intestinal parasite], and if you see runny stool in your baby rabbit, you must get him to the vet as soon as possible for treatment. In a baby rabbit, dehydration caused by diarrhea can rapidly result in death. It is wise to consider runny stool in a baby rabbit a true emergency."
my baby rabbit died after it got diarrea.

also i wasnt feeling well and i made diarrea on it maybe that's why it died (i think it drowned)
Take it to a vet IMMEDIATELY!
