Thanks! I will do that yeah. Any tips on getting them out of my tank? They made lots of babys...

If they had babies, that's bad. You will probably have to strip the tank down to get them all out.

I got a plan, with a diy trap.. this is actually already the second batch of babies. Now I am gonna hunt them down actively cuz I want fish in it hahaha

How has it gone? Should've known it was marine lice; I didn't think you meant actually coming out of your poor worm
