aagroves Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 im freaking out. I have recently been treating my discus tank for gill flukes. i got this new product and its called PARA-CIDE by aqua master. and triclorofon being the active ingredient. now i started this treatment on the 10th of Dec. now for this i had to remove my clown loaches and my sail fin plecos. and the instructions say to repeat again in seven days to prevent re infestation. now with this i did not do a water change for seven days becuase i was unsure if I should. I treaded again on the 17Th of december. but i made sure i did a huge water change so the fish would be ok. im meant to do a water change tis saturday, but i feel sorry for my discus so i went to do a water change today, then i realised these little tinny worm thingos moving around on the side of my tank and in the gravel. im really worried what these are and im unsure what they are. they wernt in my tank before i started to treat my discus for gill flukes, so what im thinking is that the gill flukes have layed eggs and now they have hatched and they r moving on the glass to find a new host aka my discus? please help me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frinkie Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 google images planaria and see if it matches up with what you have. If so don't worry about them they are harmless, usually make an appearence in fish tanks when there is too much uneaten food sitting around, cutting back on feeding usually helps thin their numbers. You can't see gill flukes with the naked eye btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
