Hi, Yes it looks like that. Silver flat tail and angular head. I believe it to have been introduced with live Daphnia.

Thanks for the suggested link. But this is deff not Planaria. Very silver (metallic almost) and acts like some sort of mosquito larvae, free swimming and at times hangs down from water surface. about 5mm long with a head. Regards,

I also have the same worm/lavae ? Did you find out what it was? Yours is the only reference I have found. Regards. Sherry.

Hi, There is no evidence of either.

Both Guppies and Mollies are various sizes and ages.

???? : A friend of mine has a 2 ft tank containing mixed livebearers. She has lost several fish over the past two months, all pregnant females. (Both Guppies and Mollies) Deaths have occurred just before or just after giving birth. Has anyone any experience of this or any ideas as to what...

Thank you, I was thinking of housing them with rainbow cychlids.

Hi, Can anyone give me any advice on, What fish are best with, and more importantly. What fish not to keep with whiptail cats? (Rinelorcaria ) : :unsure:

Many thanks for your efforts on my behalf. Sherry

Thanks for that. I was thinking of including the vermiculite with sand for the sake of plants.

No not a wind up. Perhaps you are all thinking of pearlite? not vermiculite. Vermiculite apparently will hold upto 4 times it's own weight of water. I was asking the question because I found an article referring to it at: http://www.algone.com/substrate.php Sherry44. :unsure:

Can anyone tell me if I can use vermiculite as a substrate in a tropical freshwater set up? Sherry44.
