Rookie_Boy Hobbyist Posts: 96 Kudos: 55 Votes: 0 Registered: 07-Dec-2005 | Just a few minutes ago I was feeding my fish, I saw a worm. I don't know what it is... could it be a Hydra? I got new plants and fish a few days ago.. It was about 5 millimetres long very thin.. it is White. What is it?? There is no way you can see the worm in a picture.. R_Boy |

Check the gravel when you clean next. Planaria are harmless to fish, but may harm fry. They thrive in tanks that have excess food available for them to feed on. Keeping up with maintenance will see them disappear. (gravel cleans and removing uneaten food) Before you criticize someone walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away and you have their shoes. |
