Little wriggly worms

[arcanehacker]

Just yesterday I noticed little wriggly worm like thingy swimming around.. They look like those bloodworms for FW feeds, only not thinner and lighter almost white.

I haven't got any photos coz I don't have a decent cam and was late.. Oh yeah, they seem to only appear when lights are off.. Couldn't see them this morning.

I also don't think its affecting anything else. I only got Yumas and Mushies.. I thought they were spawn but I can't think of anything that could spawn swimming 'worms'.

does it have legs??

I think I know what you are talking about. 1 to 1.5 cm in length, white in colour, and wriggles in the water column right? I see them quite often, easily 10 wriggling about at any one moment in my 24 gallon tank. If you are not observant enough, they look like stray fibre drifting in the water.

Yeah.. something like that.. I think my tank got season for breeding different such stuff.. first there are very tiny jellyfish like stuff.. then there are small shrimp like pods.. now there are worm thingy..

I'm not concerned at all coz I know they do not affect anything.. just curious.

BTW have you IDed these worm things?

Nope, I don't know what they are either. They seem harmless though, and almost impossible to catch. I can only hope they are not some exotic parasite... the kind that swim up your private parts into your blood stream in the sea... watch too much TV liao
