jayci Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 Hello, got some worm looking like things free swimming in the tank. They are about .5 to 1mm in lengh. They appear to be white in colour. I can only see then when there in a strong light shining from the side of the tank. They are to small for me to see any kind of swimming action, but there swimming is smooth not wriggle or jecky. I don't know if these thing are a problem or not. Can anybody give me any ideas of what they are. Or direct me to some drawings of worm like animals to help indentify them. No fish in the tank at the moment, did have danios in the tank earlier for spawning. Regards Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Planaria are normally on the glass and slide along like a slug. They may free swim as well but I think you should see them on the glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
