oh wow.. i was actually being serious, but thanks for warning me. in that case, i'll definately flush them :) i just went through and picked out about 6 of them that i could find. i know for a fact there are 11 visible ones because my fiancee counted them last night.. my guppies are looking at...

alrighty, cool. thanks everyone :)

so..put the lettuce in the tank? doesn't lettuce float?

hmm.. maybe i'll hand pick the big ones out and vacuum the rest.. idk.. my tank is due for a water change.. i live on a lake..maybe i'll just throw them all out there..lol one is cute. 34 are not.

well i'll buy a test kid tomorrow then, and i'll see if my fiance's mom would like to hand over some bacteria-filled gravel (yum).. and whenever i test the water, i'll be sure to write everything down the last of the mick was just swimming around , and now she's hanging out on the bottom...
