I recently found white worms in my tank, I cannot get rid of them, so I started treating my tank with salt and water changes to no avail. I found my Cory cat with this on his side last night, does anyone know what it could be from?
The white worms normally found in the gravel are found in most aquariums and live on uneaten food. If you do a 75% water change and gravel clean the substrate every day for a week or two, they go back into the gravel. They are harmless and do not need to be treated.
