i have a nursery tank that i keep my baby guppies in. It is a 30 gall planted tank, the plants are val and hygrophilla rosenvaras. it has prolly 15 baby guppies and some cherry red shrimp and a few otto cats. recently i noticed a small flea like critter in the tank. it was clear in color and appeared to move sideways. I also noticed some small flat worms. they are cream colored and almost looked like small leaches, but i suspect that they are not. they are prolly a 1/4 inch in size and like in the substrate and filter. they do not seem to bother the fish, but i am concerned. Could the worm like crtters possibly be larvae of the flea like critter i mentioned before. please help if u can.
