Hi all!
I have those little white worms in my shrimp tank. I have a lot of them. How do I get rid of them? I never noticed them in my big FW tank so I have now idea what to do in this little 10 gallon. All my females have hatched babies so there are a lot of babies right now. These worms are so ugly so any help would be great, thanks!
 
It's reported that they are usually a result of overfeeding, feed less often every 3rd day and they will starve, but your shrimp should be OK, do lots of water changes and gravel/sand vacuuming at least twice a week and just keep on top of  tank Hygiene, When your shrimps mature and as a last resort you could try using a snail killer/ dewormer that your shrimp will tolerate, I have been told that ESHa Gastropex should be OK
