today i noticed these little hair-like things clinging to the sides of the tank. ive had fish in my tank for a week and i just noticed them today.i can see particles on the glass and little things floating in the water (similar to when an another tank of mine had planaria) but these aren't white. they're little hair strands (2 or 3mm) and it appears as if one end is clinging to the glass and the other end is swaying in the current. i cant really see any on my fish......could these be flukes or something???

What color are they? They are probably some kind of algae.
