Worms

[clancampbell]

I got these tiny white worms on the glass of my hospital tank. I've tried 75% water changes followed by anti white spot or slime velvet treatment or fungus treatment nothing gets rid of them. I have a wee crab and shrimp in there and don't want to strip the tank back to scratch. Any ideas?

Planaria worms, not harmful to fish
Possible cause overfeeding. They need a food source so the
tank should be cleaned especially the substrate/ base where most of they're food will come from.

Give the gravel a good cleaning a few days in a row and they should disappear..

Another thing that can help get rid of them is aquarium salt.
