N13det Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 So last night I was cleaning out the canister on my 4ft and discovered some "little wriggly things" inside it and am wondering if anyone can id them Yes the tank is reasonably heavily stocked and undoubtedly helping the little buggers breed and the substrate in the process of being removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
th3f0rg0t3n Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 over feeding, not cleaning your filter enough and not doing gravel vac's will cause these worms, not harmful to your fish just un-sightly. would recommend doing a few gravel cleans over the weekend / during the week & clean out your filtration using the tank's water!!
