So I haven't been watching my tank very often anymore because it has been doing pretty good, when I test the water the water is usually fine. And my fish look fine. Now I just took a moment to inspect my tank to see whats been going on you know. And I see a worm. It was on the glass moving around. It was honestly a pretty thick worm but it was tiny. I dont know where it is now because i tried taking it out and i think it fell back in. then i looked at the tank for a second time and THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE! This one was skinny and attached to the wall though. And my koi betta ate that one while i was looking at it. So can someone help me get rid of this, I have no clue what they are but I hate them already and just want them gone.

tbh it should be fine and you prob cant remove them except if you use some sort of med, but all the dead worms would cause yucky spike
you can move some fish into the tank to eat the worms if u want some gone

If you see detritus worms on the glass, it is a sign the tank is not as clean as it could be. Do a big water change and gravel clean the substrate and the worms will go back into the gravel where they normally live.
