Hi everyone,

I have just this minute noticed a few tiny white worms in my tank wiggling about, yuck! :sick: They're very slim and about 2-3 milimeters long at the very most. Does anyone know what they are.

I did notice one before and someone seemed to think it was a result of over feeding but not a threat to the fish, but I wanted to check as I had seen more.

I lost a male gourami to what I think was internal parasites, but fully medicated the tank over a 10 day course and all the other fish have been fine since. I have just added some neons though and wondered if the lfs could be the source. :sly:

Any help much appreciated ;)
 
I can't spell the name but they are harmless and they can be due to over feeding, the fish will eat them.
 
Ah yes, one of my red coral platys just did, eeeeeeeewwwwwwwww!!!

Thanks for the reply :D
